Wildlife - Stand In The Water


Words // Scott Pingeton

Yesterday's post was truly new music.  Today's post is new-to-me music.  What the two have in common is that they're catchy-as-hell unabashed indie rock anthems from the Great White North.  Toronto's Wildlife dropped their debut album in November, and the lead track is "Stand In The Water", a song that adds layers upon layers of sounds - acoustic guitars, crunch electric fuzz, a pounding beat, soaring synths and gang vocals.  It's a sound that reminds me of two other Canadian bands you may have heard of... Broken Social Scene and The Arcade Fire.  Guaranteed to get your mind off the snow outside and thinking of summer days at the beach.
