Listen to SoftSpot's "King Porus"

Bands who get naked together, stay together?

From this picture, what can be discerned about this Bushwick-via-North Carolina trio? They're very comfortable with one another, their hair is thick (bonus), and they're either stoned, or they need to get more sleep, or they're standing in a particularly sunny alleyway. These guys dig creepy. Just look at the chick on their soundcloud embed below. What's she conjuring?

Below is the premiere of SoftSpot's latest track, "King Porus," which can be best described as Kate Bush fronting a gone-pop Sonic Youth back in 95. Then, in the final half of the song, SS harness Arcade Fire's knack for the epic (circa-Funeral). Most excellent.
