Alt-J feat Mountain Man

Unlike the majority An Awesome Wave, Buffalo is a lot more melancholy and has certainly been quietened to allow the duet of vocals to flourish. The drum beat is very sporadic in the introduction before the vocals are allowed to take control.

The feelings you get from Buffalo are soft and controlled before a brief moment of eccentric just over half way through the song. This leads up to the chorus with ‘Buffalo’ being repeated in many different forms ever so gently.

You can certainly hear the difference between Buffalo and the material featuring on An Awesome Wave, however, Buffalo gives off the feel of being an extended play on one of the 3 Interludes featuring on Alt-J’s debut album….
