Streaming Music: The Shivers

Tomorrow, March 25th, The Shivers release their new album Beaks to the Moon. It's a step forward from their last release, Phone Calls, with expanded instrumentation and another songwriter. And the hip hop inspirations seem to have faded, replaced with a more focused, fuller and matured sound.

Found here is a set recorded for a show called Fair Game from last year with the songs "Cold in the Morning" and "Wish I Was Never Born" from the upcoming album.

The sarcastic waltz of "Wish I Was Never Born" takes a private oath mentioned often in life, and turns the phrase into an anthem against anger and confusion. It also lingers in one's head with Keith Zarriello's strong vocals. The performance of "Beauty" rocks gently capturing the tenderness of the version found on Charades.
