Cover Notes: 'Wild Man' gives us a glimpse into the band's newest sonic direction. With a heavy rhythm section carried by Alexander Korostinsky's driving bass line, the sticky wah-guitar of Mark Sexton's L-5, and the acrobatic lines of the Wurlitzer electric piano, 'Wild Man' revels in the spiritual jazz flavors of Pharoah Sanders and grooves hard like the classic soul-jazz stylings of Ramsey Lewis. Much like the Krampus myth itself, 'Wild Man' is meant to weave an ominous spell over any Christmas cocktail party long after the kids have gone to bed. Hear the warning for yourself in the song's haunting chant: 'You better watch out for your life, when the Wild Man comes in the night'. But mythology isn't abandoned on the B-side. The band takes the traditional English folk melody 'Greensleeves' and reimagines it through the musical lens of Ethio-jazz.
