Of all the excellent new bands I’ve heard this year, I’m most excited about Annuals: they’re a young bunch of folks from North Carolina who sound like a more accessible Animal Collective, a more rhythmic Arcade Fire, well, it’s kind of hard to pinpoint exactly what they sound like, because they’re doing their own thing while still sounding like a lot of your favorite bands. This is the opening track of their forthcoming Ace Fu debut, Be He Me. I’ve been fortunate enough to hear it already, and I can promise you that this song is only a preview of even better things to come. Look for it in the fall.
