Listen to a raucous new mix from voodoo not-disco outfit Snapped Ankles

Featuring David Byrne, Brain Eno and Soft Machine.

Self-proclaimed woodland agitators Snapped Ankles have emerged from the undergrowth with a soil-encrusted bounty in the form of a new mix, Roots Of The Mother Tree, chronicling their nearest influences.

Part warehouse rave outfit, part forest-clad pagan clan, Snapped Ankles signed to Leaf Label earlier this year to join the likes of The Comet Is Coming and Polar Bear, releasing Golden Teacher-esque post-punk not-disco track ‘I Want My Minutes Back’. Due on the 30th June, their debut EP on Leaf The Best Light Is The Last Light is available to pre-order here.

In the meantime, get cosy with their record collection with this raucous hour-long forage through the weirder, hybrid realms of art-rock, punk-funk and psych-folk.

Ring of Fire – Wall of voodoo
