I’m at a loss as to why I haven’t been paying more attention to Savages, from London. Their music is hauntingly perfect. And with this video, for the song “Marshall Dear” from their debut album Silence Yourself which came out back in May, I feel like I’ve been missing out. Correcting course now.
A natural progression from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Sleigh Bells, London’s Savages are here to pound your head in, musically.
They’ve been around since 2011, but their debut album, Silence Yourself, didn’t come out until this past May. Sorry to say I’m a bit late to Savages — they came to Seattle a week ago Monday. Did you go?
