ANR has some holiday jams to spread around. First up is their very unique take on “Millionaire” – originally recorded by Kelis and featuring an amazing verse by Andre 3000. You can grab a free download of ANR’s version as well as check them out doing it live for the Neon Gold TV series above. Secondly, the band has tackled the holiday classic “Little Drummer Boy” in a manner that now makes it acceptable in DJ sets between M83 and Washed Out. Finally, speaking of DJ sets, MJ from ANR will be DJing New Years Eve with Animal Collective (Avey Tare, Geologist), JD samson and Lightwaves in Washington DC. 2012 is shaping up to be a big one.

There has never been a more fitting holiday for any band than Halloween for ANR. It just works perfectly. So much so, that they’ve recorded a Halloween jam in between cities on their current tour. Thrown together in various hotels, venue greenrooms and 8 hour drives you get “Bad Shit.” A guitar/piano ballad that opens with “Bury the body in the wall / of a room way down the hall / of a building in the woods” and grows into a characteristically ANR psychedelic synth whirlwind. Also, characteristically ANR – it is available for FREE. Spread it around and Happy Halloween!
