BIRDS - "Most Ghost"

Arriving just a little too late for Halloween is the latest song from Brooklyn's BIRDS, "Most Ghost." "Most Ghost" continues the band's knack for deftly merging classic psychedelia and 90's indie rock. It's starts off with guitar feedback that turns into perfect slacker guitar riffs. The song builds so slowly that you might not even notice. Somehow the guitar solo at the bridge (which feels similar to the Pixies' "Velouria") ends up being the most quiet part of the song. It all closes up with some Mission of Burma style looping, while still being a chill, psychedelic and intense indie rock song and the same time.

You can listen to "Most Ghost" over at What Youth. The song is being released as a split 7" with Stuyedeyed on Greenway Records. You can get your copy here. The two bands are also going on a tour together. Dates for that are below (although I don't believe there is a Boston venue named LuxDeluxe...) For more on BIRDS, check them out on Facebook.
