My Morning Jacket previewed some of the new material off of Evil Urges, including this track “Evil Urges”, while in Austin during SXSW 2008. I wasn’t expecting tracks to get leaked this early, but I cannot say I’m not a bit overjoyed that they are making their way onto the internet. According to blog site So Much Silence, he received the track from the bands record label.

The new material is definitely different. Jim James is exploring some newer vocal territory, the music is a bit more beat funky, and the presence of deep growling backing vocals is a new twist. Evil Urges might be a challenge to some My Morning Jacket fans. Listen for yourself, and let me know what you think.

Thanks to So Much Silence for the tip on this one.
