Timber Timbre Premieres Chad Vangaalen-Animated Video For ''Beat The Drum Slowly,'' from New Album 'Hot Dreams' (Out Today On Arts & Crafts), Via Time

Timber Timbre is exclusively premiering the video for "Beat The Drum Slowly," stunningly animated by Chad VanGaalen, via TIME Magazine. The track kicks off their "seductive, inviting…and deeply creepy" (NPR) new album, 'Hot Dreams,' out today on Arts & Crafts. Check out the "darkly melodic" video that's "sure to give you goosebumps while you listen on repeat" here, and see below for full North American tour dates, including a newly announced West Coast run in June: http://ti.me/1fKgBgs

With 'Hot Dreams', Taylor Kirk and Simon Trottier daub vibrant colour across Timber Timbre's ever-evolving palette, connecting arid western to plodding horror with the pomp of Hollywood phantasm. 'Hot Dreams' is the follow-up to 2011's Polaris Music Prize short-listed and JUNO Award-winning 'Creep On Creepin' On', which was hailed for its "black humour and spectral beauty" (The Guardian) and "possessed…a style all its own" (Pitchfork). Billboard named Timber Timbre one of 10 to Watch at SXSW and said 'Hot Dreams' sounds like "Nick Cave soundtracking a romantic date night." Esquire said it will turn "your day into the opening credits of a black-and-white art flick in all the best ways." In the UK, The Guardian called it a "smoky, Lynchian treat" in a glowing 5/5-star review.
