7digital What we said: Wild Beasts have always explored carnal desire within their work, but never quite as brazenly as on this fifth LP. Recorded in Dallas with St. Vincent and Swans-producer John Congleton, Boy King finds the four-piece assimilating the arid atmosphere of Texas into a predatory set examining hedonism and machismo. Mirroring the mood change are more aggressive, guitar-heavy, groove-driven arrangements, often reminiscent of Prince or Downward Spiral-era Nine Inch Nails. And while the swaggering funk-rock of Boy King might come as a shock after the spectral synth-pop of Present Tense, it’s an undeniably thrilling development.
