Strange Creature

Strange Creature is a curried blend of songwriting and performance in which blues and jazz are lightly steeped in folk styles from around the world, sensually entwined with bass clarinet and flute, aged somewhere in the chthonic heart of Cincinnati, and served on a rock and roll platter to produce a sound that has been described as mesmerizing and stimulates spontaneous outbursts of dancing.

In Unicycle songs—which somehow manage to combine "mid-tempo" with "high-octane"—you might encounter trace amounts of My Bloody Valentine, Belly, Guided By Voices, Of Montreal, the High Water Marks, the Fiery Furnaces, The Strokes, and Belle & Sebastian, bathed in Carroll and Vitale's mawkish, harmonized sarcasm and concentrated bursts of effects-pedal napalm.
