Solos: “Carpe Diem” from Beast of Both Worlds (Joyful Noise, 9/11/12)
Combining Led Zeppelin-ish acoustic rock with psych-pop and pounding, distinctive beats, Solos is a new project from Hella guitarist and cofounder Spencer Seim and avant-folk artist / temporary Hella singer Aaron Ross. “Carpe Diem” is a great dichotomy — with Seim’s jack-rabbit kick beats and guitar hammer-ons and Ross’s outstretched vocals.
Pretty cool list of songs for 2012.
