Spend some time with Wildlife!

San Francisco avant-metal provocateurs Wildlife kick off a six-week tour on Sunday, March 2nd, 2008 with what promises to be a slam-bang performance across the Bay in Oakland. The band is touring in support of its recently-released Crucial Blast album Six, which is garnering gobs of praise wherever they're writing about it.

Decibel mag sez "...there’s something charming about how homemade it all sounds – if not otherworldly, then at least coming from another room full of awesome drugs, vocals muffled by fuzz and reverb." The good folks at Exclaim!, well, exclaim about the album, "toeing the line between cunning and codswallop, Wildildlife’s music is best illustrated by the mosaic skull on their album cover: spooky, crazily colourful and inviting inquiries."
