Coyote Kid has always known how to make an entrance. Their well-spun cinematic stories, blended with explosive live performances, are something unique. The lead single from their upcoming record Skeleton Man is no different. "Femme Fatale" is probably Coyote Kid's most aggressive and fastest track to date. It's a spaghetti western-esque rocker that emphasizes the difference between the voices of frontman Austin Durry and vocalist Cassandra Valentine. Durry's rough and ragged growl is complimented by Valentine's soulful crooning and vice versa. All of this is built up by accents from a trombone and ceaseless marching beat from drummer Kian Dziak.
The band has also released a music video for "Femme Fatale;" it's something that only Coyote Kid could dream up. The video tells a story of a woman who is a slave to a vampiric car that she must feed. Scenes of the woman seducing her victims are broken up by scenes of the car's engine with blood coursing through its "veins" as it travels from town to town. The video was shot entirely on 16mm film by Christopher Behnen and Dena Winter. The pair shot it in a way that makes it feel at home among cult classic horror films of the 1970s and 1980s. The music video for "Femme Fatale" also stars Jiccarra N. Hollman.
The band is currently trying to raise money for their third album Skeleton Man. If you haven't donated yet, we'd highly recommend it.
