Stream: Milo Greene, ‘Parents’ House’

Given the month-by-month song teases, the forthcoming second album by Los Angeles quintet Milo Greene could be anything – well, anything except their folky first album. Four songs have now been released from “Control” (out Jan. 27 via Elektra), revealing the band’s new electro-inspired direction. Three might be described as bedroom disco, propulsive nuggets that suggest you don’t have to leave home to run a Saturday night fever. Marlana Sheetz’s clarion voice shines amid the boy/girl vocals of recent arrival “On the Fence,” but it is the melancholy “Parents’ House” that stands out. The spare, percussion-driven tune features Andrew Heringer in full frontal melancholy; here, the production enables song’s emotions rather than obfuscates. (The lyric video is pretty cool too.) Milo Greene’s teaser songs are available for immediate download with a pre-order of the album.
