I highlighted the LA band Local Natives and their "Daytrotter EP" in this space back in September. At the time, they had finished recording their full length album "Gorilla Manor," but didn't have a US release date for it yet.
Well now, this band is starting to generate some serious buzz. It finally released "Gorilla Manor" on February 16th and followed up last year's successful appearance at the South by Southwest Festival with another one at SXSW 2010.
The album lives up to the promise of the EP and even features all five songs from the EP (including an amazing cover of the Talking Heads' "Warning Sign" which I forgot to mentioned before).
In addition to those five songs, there are nine new ones such as "Wide Eyes," "Camera Talk," and "Cubism Dream." Overall, it's a quality album if you're into their style of music.
I'm not all that familiar with Fleet Foxes, but I'm told Local Natives kind of have a similar same sound.
Check out Local Natives' performance at SXSW 2010 here and judge for yourself.
