- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -
Never easy to categorize, Birds & Batteries continue to cut their own path of
genre-less music. Previously revered by some as alt-country garage, fuzzy
synth psych, or electronic pop, Birds & Batteries again find themselves in
new territory with their latest EP, Up To No Good. Songwriter Mike Sempert
describes it as "a spooky-funky adventure." Heavily influenced by BowieÆs
Scary Monsters, P-Funk, and John Carpenter films, the EP manages to convey a
degree of mystery/magic amidst post-modern wreckage, combining the fun of
late Æ70s freak-funk with a detached, studio cool of Æ80s R&B. And all just
in time for Halloween (cue Vincent Price).
