Sweden’s Les Big Byrd, which features Joakim Åhlund (Caesars, Teddybears) and Frans Johansson (Fireside), will release a new EP, titled Stockholm Death Star, on May 4 via Anton Newcomb’s A Recordings. The instrumental title track is a motorik groover that rockets along, and makes its debut in this post. Have a listen, and check out a couple videos from last year’s very good They Worshipped Cats, below.
