NYC's Demander are readying their new full length effort The Unkindness of Ravens. The band consists of Karen Correa (vocals/bass), Jared Scott (guitar) and Sivan Harlap (drums). When naming them band of the day, Spin compared them to the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. However, Demander has their own unique brand of rock that'll get you up out of your seat.



You can check out two preview tracks here: Lovelife and Hollis. They also have an interesting animated video for Hollis. As an added bonus, Franz Nicolay from the Hold Steady is featured on a couple tracks of the new LP as well. The band will head west in February for some California dates and come back to the East Coast and work their way south in March toward SXSW. I hope to catch them somewhere along the line, and suggest you do the same.
