Bat For Lashes, The Ghosts And The Werewolf

Bat For Lashes will have the honor and heavy burden of opening for Radiohead on their next European tour, which stops in Paris Bercy and Nimes Arenae in June. This shouldn’t be surprising, knowing that Radiohead, just like Björk or Devendra Banhart, counted among the most prominent fans of “Fur And Gold”, 1st imprint of the band led by Natasha Khan.

Refering to the song “Horse And I”, Thom Yorke reportedly said : “I love the harpsichord and the sexual ghost voices and bowed saws. This song seems to come from the world of Grimm’s fairytales, and I feel like a wolf.”

If there’s one Bat For Lashes track we can’t get enough of, it’s “What’s A Girl To Do” and its very Lynch-like, watch-it-over-and-over video:
