The Somnambulants - Paper Trail

My first exposure to The Somnambulant's music was when the title track off their last record was featured on the soundtrack of last year's excellent film, Half Nelson.  This week finds them releasing Paper Trail which focuses on rock, blues, and pop compositions arranged using electronic instruments.  This helped the group avoid writing what they viewed to be a purely "electro" record.  I think fans of Portishead, New Order, or even the Talking Heads (to name but a few) will definitely enjoy this record.  Check out two tracks from the new album below.

  • The Somnambulants - "Take It On" from Paper Trail
  • The Somnambulants - "Beat Down" from Paper Trail
