There are two bands with this name: 1) http://facebook.com/newanimalnewanimal "Just two dudes from Atlanta, Kris Hermstad and Derek Burdette have labored over 15 tracks and 75 minutes of music in styles ranging from bedroom pop to exp. psych pop to anthemic kraut rock. The more the merrier — they don’t fit some simple category, no “RIYL” recommendations abound. Seemingly from the heart, or from the mind, or from the gut, but at least from somewhere within. They don’t cop someone else’s sound and fuzz the hell out of it to mask their theft. They aren’t hopping on the latest genre bandwagon. Listen for yourselves:" - http://iguessimfloating.net Download their new January 2011 release for free at http://NewAnimal.Bandcamp.Comnewanimal.net 2) http://www.facebook.com/NewAnimalMusic New Animal is a hard rock/alt. metal band from Cortland, NY. Their sound has been loosely compared to Staind, A Perfect Circle, Chevelle and Breaking Benjamin, but it expands upon the genre by including intricate lead guitar work, and ambient guitar synth flavors. The vocals are powerful, and the lyrics deal beyond the cliche angst ridden themes of the genre. The songs convey episodes of the human experience purely and honestly, both positive and negative. All in all the four members of the band demonstrate mastery over their instruments, and along with a tight set of solid original music, this makes for a killer live show. http://www.facebook.com/NewAnimalMusic?sk=discography Read more on Last.fm.
