From the heart of Brooklyn, in that hipster’s Mecca that is Williamsburg, Dave Longstreth’ collective recovered the finest art-rock spirit and offered an album that totally matched his ambitions, two years after hitting headlines with their peculiar reinterpretation of Black Flag´s hardcore classic “Rise Above”. Dissonant vocal harmonies; finely crafted songs with a wealth of unexpected embellishments, “Bitte Orca” was not easy to classify or describe; instead, it unveiled its many treasures with each listening. Dirty Projectors have been collecting superlatives reviews since it saw the light of day, with many comparing the band with early Talking Heads for its unique sense of innovation.
