The Walkmen, More



The Walkmen's new site is up, and it's hilarious.

"We've created a website that we're all very proud of. It is dedicated to providing useless, accurate about the Walkmen. We hope you like it."

And how I do! Check out the page on the tour van's seating arrangements, as well as excerpts from their upcoming novel, John's Journey. Hopefully they'll have some songs from A Hundred Miles Off, now completed and in stores May 23rd. I want to be a Walkman.

Special for you, from the White 8 Songs EP:

The Hold Steady has signed to Vagrant, and my tastes have apparently come full-circle.

Marathonpacks discusses covers. One of my favorite songs is a cover:

M. Ward - Let's Dance (David Bowie cover) [mp3]

Visit M. Ward online

Finally, Calexico has made availabe the acoustic version of "All Systems Red" (via CW). I posted about the original a while ago.

Enjoy!
