James Supercave

Better Strange

James Supercave’s falsetto funk is so fucking delicious and weird. Makes me want to tell you the truth about everything. Even more than I already do. 

They have a sound that sounds like James Supercave, like sails blown by strange winds through clear blue eyes. But, in addition to being in possession of their very own glorious skin, they manage to make infectious fucking songs. Songs that creep under the folds on your ears and set up hobo camps. Songs that refuse to leave. Songs that you eventually invite into your home. 

I’ve watched this psychedelically animated video like 15 times today. “Better Strange” is like an anthem of the kind of love that I crave. We can’t all be perfect. I like it when our flaws show; when the strangeness is allowed to seep through the facade. When the you that makes you you shows up at the party ready to get weird. Truth or dare, fuckers!?
