Band of Skulls are prepping its third studio album Himalayan. To help celebrate this holiday season, the "Sweet Sour" band is helping its fans celebrate the UK holiday of Boxing Day with a small sampling from the new release: a bonus track "Be Mine."
The song, which will be available as an iTunes exclusive bonus track for the March 31, 2014, album, debuted on YouTube today (Dec. 26).
The haunting track begins with a rousing guitar solo from Russell Marsden before turning into a haunting love song led by a piano and rich harmonies between Marsden and Emma Richardson.
Soon the track builds into an explosive alt-rock jam, while maintaining the rich folksy harmonies.
