I received an email from New York tribal/experimental folk act Wild International. They claim their influences include bands such as Akron/Family, Animal Collective, and Keepaway - and from the opening moments of 'Creeks', their leading single off their forthcoming EP it isnt hard to see why. The running water and warped whistling evokes early AC, whilst the jangly Americana-flavoured guitar and hushed drums are definitely in the AF mold.

I can't wait 'til this band gets the acknowledgement that they deserve- they're completely ahead of what's going on in music right now and I think, eventually, people are going to start seeing the real genius behind what Wild I is doing. Just wait!
