Disguised as Birds – New Demons
It seemed like every time I looked I would spot Milwaukee’s Disguised as Birds playing a date with Traindodge somewhere (and sure enough, looking now they are playing with them in October). Never really fully putting two and two together, that just maybe I should check these guys out, I finally picked up their newest EP New Demons a week or so ago and it’s done more than its fair share of rocking being unleashed of it’s little plastic sleeve. I’d actually heard their first full-length that they put out in 2005, however never followed up with them for whatever reason. I’ll chalk it up to me being lazy. But like I said, their persistent popping up in various tour dates with bands of the Midwestern type that I like so much led me to give them another go around. Kind of a shame, as listening to their latest release I feel like a fool for letting these guys go under the radar for so long. I also managed to pick up their second full-length Seeds in the process, which is also excellent but more of an expansive effort in terms of songwriting when compared to the tracks found here on New Demons. This EP is a focused and lean serving of Midwestern influenced rock with a notable post-hardcore slant, sort of similar to that of Prize Country but maybe a little less aggressive. No matter, Disguised as Birds are well worth checking out if you’re a fan of any of the aforementioned.

Everything the band has released up until this point is available through CD Baby. If you’re enjoying the track above, I definitely recommend checking out their previous albums along with picking up New Demons. Enjoy!
