Taggart And Rosewood – The Killingest

That this duo is named afeter Eddie Murphy’s sidekicks in Beverly Hills Cops, soundtracked a pornographic short film shot with a drone called Drone Boning (natch) and based this debut album on recordings of the synapses of their brains whilst under the influence of DMT should convince you that they’re unusual enough to warrant at least a casual listen. That they’re Justin Vernon’s sidekicks in Gayngs and joined here by Spoon’s Jim Eno on drums, make glacially paced electronic music simultaneously sexy and creepy enough to perfectly accompany a bit of voyeuristic nature porn and have created a warped and magical debut that perfectly reflects their DMT-addled minds should convince you that The Killingest is extraordinary enough to warrant multiple close listens.
