WILD BEASTS

The Hot Press Newsdesk, 22 Jun 2010

Since releasing their first single �Brave Bulging Buoyant Clairvoyants� in 2006, the Wild Beasts have become music festival regulars. Comical lyrical wordplay and lead singer Hayden Thorpe�s seemingly impossible falsetto voice are in high demand. This July they�ll take the stage at Oxegen for the second time, before embarking on a whirlwind tour of festivals and smaller gigs.

Who says skinny white guys with guitars can't write about sex? Knocking the old cliches about uptight English guitar bands firmly on the naggin, Hot Press Album of the Year winners Wild Beasts return with a record chronicling in excruciating detail the squalid underbelly of sudden success. Over coffee and buns, they discuss new LP Smother, the pressure a Mercury nomination brings and the dark side of the English Lake District.
