Stars Like Fleas - The Ken Burns Effect

Brooklyn-based experimental rock band Stars Like Fleas will release their third album The Ken Burns Effect on June 3 under Hometapes.

"Stars Like Fleas may truly represent a new branch on America’s phylogenetic musical tree, distinguishing themselves through an unlikely alchemy where anxiety and confrontation accompany something candid, joyous and unashamedly romantic. In already-mythic, transformational performances, Stars Like Fleas create music of its own haunted species; as accessible and humane as it is unsettling and extreme." - Force Field PR

Fronted by multi-instrumentalist Shannon Fields and vocalist Montgomery Knott, SLF contain members and contributers from other bands like TV On The Radio, The Fiery Furnaces, Beirut, Tall Firs, Mercury Rev, Celebration and The Silent League.

I Was Only Dancing is one of the 10 tracks featured in this album. A cosy-folkish song to listen to when you're in need of 5-precious minutes of relaxation with something ear-soothing that won't screw up your mind even worsen. Great rhythms. Catchy tunes.

You can sample their music at their MySpace.
