Two reviews for i-D that I wrote in May that both have animals in their band names. Wow.

Inherit
Ecstatic Peace!
If you are in a band called Sonic Youth any side project would usually be taken as a vanity concern.

Bella Union
Dripping with an authentic rootsyness and packed with lush vocal melodies, harmonies and banjo led arrangements this one ably vaults the hype to establish itself as a major concern. The lost link between Palace era Will Oldham, the best bits of Sufjan and Yeasayer’s reimagining of just how good a bunch of guys singing at once can be.
