Brooklyn's Weegee have released a new single that has one of the coolest sounds we've heard this year. "Spellbound" can best be described as dirty blues, but it more uses that genre as a template to then go and explore with. The song kind of sounds like it's being played at half speed, and there is an almost disturbing amount of fuzz and noise layered all over it. "Spellbound" has a sound like prime Velvet Underground time travelled to the early 80's to jam with Sonic Youth, and they decided to play some blues covers. If that doesn't make you press play on the latest from Weegee, I don't know what possibly could.
You can listen to "Spellbound" below. Primitive Thrill is due out on October 31 via Dot Dash Sounds, and is available for pre-order through Bandcamp. For more on Weegee, check out the band on Instagram.
