MP3: The Black Crowes – “I Ain’t Hiding” from Before the Frost, due September 1 on their own Silver Arrow Records via Megaforce.

With a totally disco rhythm section, it sounds like the Black Crowes are giving us their very own Emotional Rescue. Some cool Rhodes, some “oooh oooh” background vocals, a little wah wah. Actually maybe the Robinson bros might have been listening to some Modest Mouse recently. After 20 years of classic rock, they’re branching out into indie disco. Good for them!

Black Crowes: iTunes, Amazon, Insound, wiki, web.
