Laura Stevenson and the Cans – A New Record
This album was a pain to get into a grooveshark playlist. The quality dropped below grooveshark’s acceptible limits so I had to change the bitrate and then the sample rate was too high. It was worth it though, as this album will likely be one of your favorites. With infectious melodies accompanied by intricate guitar, crumbling distortion, trumpets, and violins – this minimalist and “sweetly cacophonous” Brooklyn outfit will make you smile or crush your soul depending on your current level of sadness. By the way they just started up their tour, so be sure to check out their myspace for tour dates.
Side note: All playlists I have been exporting include the first track twice, and I can’t seem to find away around that. Apologies.
