LA based WAND blasted their way into our hearts last year with their wonderfully odd fuzz-rocket of a sinlge ‘Self Hypnosis In 3 Days’, taken from their album Golem. Now expanded to a five piece and with a new album, Plum, due for release through City Slang they’ve taken a gentler but no less strange approach to their music, and ‘Bee Karma’ is a perfect case in point. Based around a rollicking riff, but plunging into quieter moments of introspection and featuring a video in which frontman Cory Hanson drives a clown around in a vintage yellow family estate.
‘Bee Karma’ is released on 22nd September through Drag City Records. The band tour across the USA in September and October before heading across the Atlantic for a series of UK dates in January.
