Amazon's "Rising Star of 2013" NICO VEGA have released a lyric video for their hit song "Beast" today over at IGN. The band talked about the recent success of the song, which was featured in the ad for the Bioshock Infinite video game.
The "Rising Los Angeles rockers," as dubbed by Rolling Stone, are fresh off their release of the Fury Oh Fury EP in February and are about to start the second leg of their US tour with Imagine Dragons. LA Weekly recently described the band as, "At heart an organically primal rock & roll band. Nico Vega lately have layered elements of insistent electronica behind the capricious and ludicrously compelling vocals of Volkman." "Beast" was the #1 fastest growing song on NEXT BIG SOUND with no radio airplay (week of 4/10).
"Beast" was remixed by Vicetone last month and featured on ThisSongIsSick.com.
Check out a recent feature on NYLON MAGAZINE, where they gave fans a chance to win an Urban Decay gift basket with makeup inspired by the "Beast" music video.
