Yeasayer – Ambling Alp

1 Nov

Yeasayer Ambling Alp favorite songs are giving away “Ambling Alp,” the first single off their sophomore LP, Odd Blood on their website. You can also purchase a “very limited” 12″ vinyl containing the single and instrumental plus remixes by Memory Tapes and DJ /rupture, all enclosed in a “space age metallic sleeve.” Well worth the $8, if you ask me.

“Ambling Alp” is the type of bright, weird pop gem that you yearn for, without knowing it. But the satisfaction that comes after the first few listens is undeniable. ’s upcoming album, Odd Blood is out February 9th on Secretly Canadian.

    Great song! Loving the new Yeasayer. I agree its very 80s and kind of Animal Collective sounding.
