OUT TODAY: SLEIGH BELLS KID KRUSCHEV
VIDEO FOR “AND SAINTS” NOW AVAILABLE EVERYWHERE
Sleigh Bells’ highly anticipated mini-LP, Kid Kruschev is out today. The Brooklyn-based duo, comprised of vocalist Alexis Krauss and producer/guitarist Derek Miller, release the follow-up to critically praised Jessica Rabbit on their own label, Torn Clean. Historically adored for sharp, disruptive melodies and delightfully frenetic lyricism, Sleigh Bells’ latest boasts evolution, bringing relevant narrative where due.
“Like everyone else, Sleigh Bells are feeling the weight of the world in 2017. Their lean new mini-album has more thematic cohesion than their previous releases and also a surprising tenderness.” – Pitchfork
“The key thing to take away is that they’re not much interested in wasting your time.” -Vulture
The band’s familiar darkness remains in a new video for “And Saints,” co-directed by Sleigh Bells’ own Derek Miller, and Mimi Cave, released widely today. Sleigh Bells will embark on a massive North American tour this winter, with support from Sunflower Beanon multiple dates. Full list is below.
