Riff: Julian Casablancas + The Voidz – “Where No Eagles Fly”

Sep 10, 2014

The wolf will cry sheep as they take him away/We plot in our sleep but follow orders all day

from Where No Eagles Fly lyrics by Julian Casablancas + The Voidz

This 4-minute single is actually iffier than its 11-minute predecessor. Presumably a sort of vegetarian’s anthem, (“predators eat meat”), the hardcore-infused synth-punk fails the verses, is decent on the choruses, and kills the outro with pop flair. Experiment-al music = trial + error; [LISTEN].
