Digital FORT: Hear a perfectly unpolished new Kills Birds demo
Kills Birds are one of the buzziest rock bands on the West Coast right now. Their self-titled debut album, released last year on KRO, was a smoldering and sludgy thing that dived into mid-’90s grunge melodies with little warning and secured them a slot on tour with the legendary Hot Snakes. Before that tour was cut short last month, lead singer Nina Ljeti was documenting their time on the road, capturing beautifully grainy VHS footage as they traveled around the U.S. Ljeti — a filmmaker in her own right who directed James Franco in Memoria — cut that all together for Digital FORT and overlaid the footage with a new demo, which she’s calling “Natalie.” Watch it at the top of the page.
