Wednesday, Nov. 18, 2009

Cloud Dog is a kindred spirit to freaked-out experimental acts like Dan Deacon, Animal Collective, and F*ck Buttons, building songs out of jarring sample juxtapositions and loopy beats. The insanity is held together by addictive rhythms that invite dancing and/or beating on the nearest non-living thing. The three active Cloud Doggers popped into our podcast studio to chat and share tracks from their recent albums “Animals” and “Black Night White Light.”
