La Shark are the guys who make up Josh Weller's fantastic live band. This project is a whole new kettle of fish however.The fact the five boys only have one track up hasn't stopped them from cropping up a fair few times on the blogosphere, but I haven't managed to uproot anything new on the Londonian band.
The solitary track available for streaming on their myspace, Bones, is incredible enough to make up for three or four more.
It bangs away at the drums until it's forced itself into the thisongisstuckinmyhead gland at the front of your brain, in an oddly reggae-esque way. And...the lyrics are psychic I promise, soon you'll be thinking "I can't get you out my bones/I don't know what to do!" about this very song, which is exactly what Sam Deschamps yowls, in what must be one of the catchiest choruses I've heard all year, there's also the infectious truth "I'm a skeleton!/I'm a skeleton!", that's just too damn quirky not to love.
For anyone who wants to do some detective work on these shady lads, head over to one of the many gigs in London they've got in the pipeline. I will definitely be keeping an ear out for my next sharked up fix. Nobody seems to know a thing, and I'm intrigued...
Listen and become addicted to Bones here.
