Svelt – ‘Ghost In Suede’ (mp3)

Listen to

Self-described as a “hard-luck tale with a hard beat,” Svelt’s track ‘Ghost In Suede’ doesn’t disappoint on either front. It’s driven by a loud funk/hip-hop beat over some scratchy blues guitar, squelchy synth bass, and gravely vocals. It sounds more than a little Waits-ish (a good thing) but with some added muscle from the drum kit (also a good thing). Just when the main refrain, ‘baby, you did me real good’ starts to drag they inject some haunted-house backing vox to reinvigorate the tune.

‘Ghost In Suede’ is the better half of a recently-released, super-limited hand-crafted double A-Side that you can only obtain by contacting the band directly. Check their Myspace below for deets etc.
