So right now I'm on a what you would call an Alt-folk kick. I've been listening to The Loom and Pale Young Gentlemen A LOT right now. Pale Young Gentlemen hail from Madison, WI and they're part of a much larger scene out in the upper midwest. I could go off into a long tangent about graduate school choices and the midwest, but we'll leave that for next year. The new Pale Young Gentlemen album Black Forest (Tra La La) has been the first album that I've purchased in a long while and it has been very, very worth it. I think actually that instead of the lame title alt-folk, we should call it Woods Rock. Say it with me now, Woods Rock. Much better ring to it. Either way listen to these two tracks, which are perfect for fall and follow me into my newest musical obsession (listen to the strings!). Oh and go check them out on myspace or buy the album on emusic.
Pale Young Gentlemen - The Crook of my Good Arm
Jayber Crow - Oh my God when I Drop Dead
