DOWNLOAD: Cougar - Stay Famous + Mike Ladd Remix
Wisconsin agit-prog quintet Cougar just linked with Ninja Tune's Counter imprint for their new album, Patriot, due out September 1. "Stay Famous" is the first MP3 to surface; a buggy, beastly, three-headed worm of a jam that moves from polite post-rock to what sounds like Fugazi riffs dunked in battery acid. We've also got a line on Mike Ladd's smashed-up remix of the tune, a version we are feeling for its blatant disregard of proper gain levels. Remember kids, distortion can be beautiful. Cougar head out on tour with Maximo Park in September, dates up at their MySpace.
Sounds like: Battles, Mr. Bungle, Japanther
