Do you ever find yourself singing a song in your head, but being unable to remember what the heck it is? It happened to me while I was out and about just last week. The tune went round and round until it finally clicked. It was 'Boeing 737' by Rhode Island band The Low Anthem - what a relief, I could relax. Then I started to wonder what on Earth ever happened to Low Anthem and resolved to Google them when I got home. Needless to say, remembering to Google The Low Anthem became just one of the many things to fall out of my brain when it gets too full. So imagine my surprise this morning when, while idly clicking around, I came across an advert for 'Eyeland', a brand new LP by The Low Anthem - coincidence or what? It's their first release in 5 years and appears to be a psych-folk concept album, which sounds intriguing. 'The Pepsi Moon' is the first taster.

Hi Mr. S,
Hope you're enjoying your summer!
The drummer here is no Benny Benjamin, but I'm going to check out Pepsi Moon on youtube. (For some reason, I can't get Soundcloud to play.)
;-)
Ah, that's nice. Really like this new one, Swede.
F*ck me they're good! I feel a purchase (or two) coming on.
In three years I was the only person to take Oh My God Charlie Darwin out the library!
