DOWNLOAD: Soft Black - I Am An Animal
"I am An Animal" is a gruff, primitive rock song that appeals to the carnivore and caveman within you; it's seductive in its gritty imperfection. Over DIY garage band riffs, Soft Black's Vincent Cacchoine howls and spits, "If I break my back; if the smoke fills up my lungs; I'll be howling in a jungle choir," and then continues on a punked-out rant about blood and carcasses. Meanwhile, the electric guitar sporadically grunts and groins, like breaks that need oil, before splaying into a cymbal-clashing, guitar-riffing chorus.
"The Lion" on the other hand channels the folk-rock sentiments of The Band and Dylan in the loose, Southern rock tenor of Dead Confederate or Blitzentrapper.
Keep an eye on Soft Black; they've recently released their second record,The Earth Is Black, purportedly based on a series of Cacchoine's dreams/nightmares, and are prepped to perform this Wednesday at Cakeshop.
