New Zs Download: "Acres of Skin" on Village Voice

I cannot wait to get a copy of the new Zs record. If the first single off the album is any indication, these guys are burning. "Acres of Skin" is available on the Village Voice Sounds of the City blog, so I would say stop reading this and head over there for some Zs goodness. The Social Registry is releasing the band's new record entitled New Slaves. It's out May 11th. Sockets released a cdr for Zs a few years ago entitled Four Systems (an interpretation of Earle Brown's original composition) and then a remix 12" that is still available from Sockets - $12 postage paid.

Here's a little snippet from the Village Voice interview with Sam:

What inspired this song musically? We had done another song that feature clapped rhythms. Ben had an odd, kind of twisted riff that involved some detuned strings, and I suggested that it be a sort of follow up to our first clapping joint. After that, we just tried to let the material play itself out naturally. Then there was some work in the studio to make it pop.

Go get it!
