I discovered Freelance Whales over the weekend, and I have been obsessing over their debut album ever since. I noticed that they were getting some good hype from Stereogum, but I didn’t look into them simply because I am pretty lazy right now. It took some other bloggers to push my lazy ass to get started on this wonderful band. A thank you to Lindsay and Luis for this!
A “band to watch” post is on the way (but i got a test in 4 hours), but for now enjoy “Generator ^ First Floor” the opening song from their debut album Weathervanes.
The song blew me away from my very first listen. It has been my most played song for the last week by far. This song is so pure, so gentle, so organic. Their voices are amazing, they play a gorgeous tune with all instruments (goodbye over usage of electronics!!). What is not to like about “Generator ^ First Floor”?
