Why didn't we think of the band name 'Sexwitch'? It's a good'un.
It's a collaboration between Bat For Lashes, Toy and producer Dan Carey, the man behind Kate Tempest's sound.
Their self-titled debut album, due for release on September 25, is made up of covers of traditional folk songs originating from Morocco, Thailand, USA and Iran.
Speaking about the project and the band name, Bat For Lashes - real name Natasha Khan - told Pitchfork: "When we were recording it, every time I’d do funny sex noises, me and Dan said, we’re being sexy witches.
"It’s a bit tongue in cheek, we’re not trying to be super cool, but I think it’s memorable. There is something very magical and dark and feminine archetypal force about it."
The reason for picking track 'Helelyos'; it's atmospheric and unlike anything I've heard for a while, and how can anyone resist Khan's vocals?
