DOWNLOAD: Plastic Flowers - Strange Neighbors (MP3)
Given the brittle, gloom-n-romance sounds he creates, I wouldn't be surprised to learn that Sean Earl Beard named his musical pseudonym Plastic Flowers after the song by The Wake. (He's also a Felt fan.) Beard recently relocated from Tallahassee, FL to New York and has found a good home at Wierd Records who just released his new 7" "Strange Neighbors" which you can download at the top of this post. The video for it is below.
Plastic Flowers plays tonight (11/30) at the weekly Wierd night at Home Sweet Home which serves as both a record release party for the single and Wierd's 8th Anniversary celebration. DJing amongst the smoke machines will be Pre-Op Trans, Anthem(Frank(justFrank)) and Frankie Teardrop.
Click through for a couple more streamable Plastic Flowers tracks below (including the very good "Take Me Home") plus the "Strange Neighbors" video and tonight's Wierd flyer...

It never ceases to amaze me how many dicks come on here to post snarky comments to work out their middle school issues. Yeah, we get it: no one would let you sit at their lunch table, you got picked last for kick ball, and your daddy said he was disappointed in you. If you can't come up with anything insightful or interesting to say, do us all a favor and work out your frustrations with your own life through your ironic kickball league.

hey guys c'mon. Comparing this dick to Ian Curtis makes me wanna throw up omg? Naaaah. More of hipster wave than new wave.
Thank you Pitchfork for all the shitty music you're promoting.

I love how dorks that post when we're all out having a good time inevitably accuse us of having no life.
I laugh at you 8:02. Was this week's episode of Modern Family good?

This music is so original (cough). How did he ever come up with such an elusive style like this? I grew up listening to post punk/ wave, but c'mon dude, come up with a different twist. This shit is getting stale.

Strange undercurrent of homophobia in this thread. White male privileged rules, huh guys?
So what if he is gay-looking, these songs are catchy. Shouldn't that be the only thing that matters?

Cool that you wore the same outfit for your promo pic and video.
