New Beirut, "La Llorna"

The first noise out of the Beirut camp comes from the first single off of the upcoming March of the Zapotec/Holland, "La Llorna".  As many have heard, Zach Condon recorded half of the album in Mexico with the Jimenez Band, and the other, a series of home recordings.  This track and video are both extremely interesting, as Condon has adjusted the Balkans-sounding Beirut to the Mexican atmosphere in which he was recording in.  The result- so far, so good.  March of the Zapotec/Holland is out February 17th, via Pompeii Records/Ba Da Bing.
