Dirty Projectors

Add Date: May 26

Artist: Dirty Projectors

Album: Stillness Is the Move (EP)

Label: Domino

Genre: Rock, experimental

Comments: "Stillness Is the Move" is the first single from the upcoming Dirty Projectors release Bitte Orca, and Domino has kindly sent us this EP so that we may start wagging our tails with excitement about the full-length. It's an excellent song from a band that appears to be hitting its stride, particularly with the vocal efforts of Amber Coffman (pictured on the album cover) and current playlist artist Angel Deradoorian.

The EP features seven tracks, including two B-sides and two remixes of "Stillness," plus an "a cappella" version on which there is instrumental accompaniment. Dirty Projectors founder and spearhead Dave Longstreth is clearly a brilliant musician, but someone should explain to him what "a cappella" means. Really.

That is all. Bitte Orca lands June 9.
