Top 20 Songs of 2014: Neighbors - Wild Enough




The Brooklyn-based songwriter/producer emerged from a hail of other bands and bedroom projects in 2012. We shared "Diamonds," from his indietronic debut Good Luck, Kid, but he's aiming for a sound much bigger this time around. Case in point: "Wild Enough."

Failure was produced by Kyle "Slick" Johnson (Modest Mouse, the Hives). Spin
