Alright so here are the first fruits of Amazing Baby's debut album which the band is in the midst of recording and should be released this summer. "Bayonets," which I don't think I've heard them do live, definitely reinforces the Roxy Music comparisons with the sweeping string arrangements and big drama. While not likely to shut up the Brooklyn Vegan hater-commenters, this is pretty great.
