Wolf fur is in fashion

Wolf Parade'sApologies To The Queen Mary was one of the best and best-loved albums of 2005. We’re still anxiously awaiting the follow-up but in the meantime have been treated to Spencer Krug’s side-projects Sunset Rubdown and Swan Lake. Now the other half of Wolf Parade, Dan Boeckner released his side-project together with his wife. They’re called Handsome Furs and their sound is dissonant, a bit chaotic and lo-fi, much like Wolf Parade. Different are the sterile drum machine sounds (courtesy of Boeckners wife) which contrast perfectly against the raw guitars and vocals.


You can find the song Handsome Furs Hate This City on their album called Plague Park

So it was written, so it has come to pass.
