Wild Beasts - 'The Devil's Crayon' (2008)

The Devil's Crayon sees Tom Fleming swap vocals duties with usual lead singer Hayden Thorpe. With its refrain of "We are so many tiny pieces" and Tom's yearning delivery, the song shimmers in widescreen around a sense of location, melody and wonder at the scale of things. The Devil's Crayon sounds like the theme song to a new kind of very English, (probably un-filmable) road movie.

[Ashley James]

that jangly guitar part sounds great

[Taylortots11d7]

I agree completely. Both of their voices are so unique and fit perfectly with the music they play. I love them to death.

[StripeyJumpsuit]

Wow.... just wow. Tom's voice is so charming. It's richer than Hayden's, but I love them both.
