One of my favorite bands of all time, Trampled by Turtles, has a new song. I am a bit partial because I have a serious love for their music, but honestly this new song is truly spectacular and unforgettable. “Wild Animals” is soft, steady, and haunting. I find it to be very different from their other songs that are full of fast paced picking. Loaded with a lovely layering of instruments and vocals, it captures me from the start and fills my heart with a serious longing for more.
Just listen…
“There’s another world
it’s made for us
trapped in bodies
they’re made to rust
it’s a wonder I can break right through
I am ready how ’bout you?
By the coming dark
we try to breathe
and this just can’t be happening
we found everything we need
buried deep beneath the leaves
I see the better part of you
I see the better part of you
but I’m a monster just like you
wild animals, it’s true”
The new album by the same title, Wild Animals, will be out July 15.
