A lot has happened since NYC Takka Takka‘s 2008 album release "Migration" – which was very well received. The band members followed different paths for awhile, but the core duo of vocalist/guitarist Gabe Levine and drummer Conrad Doucette didn’t lose touch, involved a new bassist (Craig Montoro) and kept working on a new release, which can be now streamed online here. The album keeps faith to the band’s textured, angular but sensual and vaguely melancholic sound, with an added orchestral element brought by Levine’s long time collaborator Michael P. Atkinson. Entitled "A.M. Landscapes," the album is out now on Earnst Jennings, the opener track "A Bad Sign (High and Lows) is streaming below and was added to our SoundCloud compilation of the best new tracks by emerging NYC bands here. Stay tuned for upcoming shows in the NYC area.
