megapuss - adam and steve

Now then, Devendra Banhart.  I’ve always liked his beard, but not his music.  However, his new collaboration with Greg Rogrove - called Megapuss - is rather good.  It’s a bit Doors, and bit Electric Prunes.  It’s loose and tuneful and  I like it.  They’ve just released their debut LP - Surfing -  and are giving away this track for free.

Check them out on Myspace: www.myspace.com/megapuss
