DOWNLOAD: Damien Jurado - Gillian was a Horse (MP3)
Damien Jurado

"Laura Gibson's new album, Beasts of Seasons, is nothing short of a masterpiece, both for its flawless and often haunting execution and for its inspired statements on the human experience. Broken into two parts, "Communion Songs" and "Funeral Songs," the album opens with a foreboding burst of feedback and static. If it's the sonic equivalent of darkness and what may be lurking there, then Gibson's fragile voice and plaintively strummed guitar soon emerge as a flicker of light. It's a mesmerizing contrast, as the curtain rises for Gibson's beautifully gloomy and arresting meditations on life and death."Damien Jurado is going on tour with Laura Gibson. Tickets are on sale for an April 17th show at the Bell House in Brooklyn. All dates below...
[NPR is streaming the whole album]

Damien is a lot heavier than Chris Parnell. And they look nothing alike. They're both white with dark-ish hair. That's about it.
Sucks the Bell House show is the same date as Dead Milkmen. Would really like to see him.

Damien's skinny now. He's been a vegan for a couple years.

shame about the vegan-ism. When will that fad die?

wembley, when will you die?
