All I want for Christmas is Yeasayer’s “Odd Blood.” Combining influences ranging from the irresistible beats of 70s disco to the plaintive wails of african tribal music, the new album by the Brooklyn band shows off the group’s versatility and unique appeal. I hear hints of Air France, Beach House, Girls, Animal Collective, and…Creed? (Madder Red). Seriously seductive. Though the album doesn’t technically drop until February 8th, check out some of the tracks:

ONE is my favorite song from the new album, with a crazy-optimistic dance beat and lyrics about a mix of post-break-upĀ emotions.

Also check outĀ Madder Red and Ambling Alp.
