Icy Demons
Icy Demons from Chicago has their 3rd album out on the Japanese Easel label. Man Man’s Christopher Powell & Bablicon’s Griffin Rodriguez seem to be the main men of this band, assisted by other Chicago musicians with such silly names as Ali Hawkbar and Ta-Freek-Ya!.

Just check out the video to hear those influences on “Miami Ice” : dreamy childlike Canterbury pop, lovely percussive rhythms, 70’s electronic weirdness, Caribbean sounds, brasses. The warm exotica of “Summer Samba” and the wacky Herbert-like “Crittin’ Down To Baba’s” show the range that these guys go through. Only downside of this one is that it’s a Japan only import release, so you either have to shell 35 grand, or scourge the net.
