Winged Wheel - "I See Poseurs Every Day"

Detroit experimental supergroup Winged Wheel have a brand new single out that pushes their sound forward. "I See Poseurs Every Day" is a shockingly groovy and noisy single that is heavily rooted in psychedelia. There are some elements of proto-punk, garage rock, folk music, and funk throughout the song. Interestingly, while most modern experimental music tends to look to the future for inspiration (either electronic or pure noise), Winged Wheel look towards the past. "I See Poseurs Every Day" is more along the lines of classic rock than a modern sound. This is like an unexpected melding of The Stooges, ZZ Top, and Neil Young. In other words, this song is fantastic.
