MusicFirst LookDog Bite – TranquilizersExclusive: Washed Out's keyboardist smears soul with shoegaze in his new band – stream their gorgeous second albumShareLink copied ✔️January 14, 2014MusicFirst LookTextAlice Greenberg In a new set of sounds inspired by the likes of Otis Redding and Isaac Hayes, Atlanta-based band Dog Bite – the new project from Washed Out's keyboardist Phil Jones – releases a sensory album of dark, soulful melodies, with smooth vocals dipped in Codeine. The fittingly-titled Tranquilizers is the band's second release, and meanders in a dream-like state rooted in old-school influence. Jones experiments with a kick of smoky textures and lazily stretched vocals that blend seamlessly into one another, with hazy synth-work and surrealist sounds.
