I know I'm a little late to the new Wolf Parade track hoopla, but I had just posted my "New Music Tuesday" (oddly on Monday) when I discovered the leak and it was a bit too late to add it to that post. Then I had people clamoring for the continuation of my in-depth series on the 9/11 Commission. Ok, maybe that was just Dan. Then I got busy at work and busy with my class and softball season's about to start and I actually spent an hour at the cages trying to refine my swing. And by "refine," I mean I swung and missed at the first two offerings by the pitching machine. Not good times. In my defense, I had just run 3 miles on two bad knees and one bad ankle. So I was a little exhausted. Anyway, this was my first chance to post the new Wolf Parade track, "Call it a Ritual" (a Spencer song).
I'm sure you've heard it. I've listened at least a dozen times. As with most Spencer/Wolf Parade music, the first few listens don't bring a full appreciation, but it definitely grows on you. I pretty much love it now. But it's like 3 minutes long and the album track listing is only 9 songs, so I'm not expecting this to be representative of the entire album, which remains as yet unnamed. And as yet un-leaked. Believe me, I've been looking in my spare time. Ok, I haven't had any spare time, so maybe it has been leaked and I remain blissfully ignorant. I just really can't wait any longer. Anyway, here's the new song. Enjoy.
Track Listing:
- 01 Soldier’s Grin
02 Call It a Ritual
03 Language City
04 Bang Your Drum
05 California Dreamer
06 The Grey Estates
07 Fine Young Cannibals
08 An Animal in Your Care
09 Kissing the Beehive
Live recording of "Fine Young Cannibals" after the jump. It's a Dan song, although Spencer can be heard at the beginning announcing it as his "favorite new song."
Dude, I got this track from so many other sites already... I've got the whole 9 tracks if you want them.
