Can I urge you all to buy this record?

The guy is a modern classic American poet and storyteller. (And Ben used to play bass for his band and has sung backing on his songs before - so that's the DCFC connection sorted.)

But mainly, as this will be one of the best records you could buy this year.

Pre-order now and you can stream it before its 1st September release date...

Urge away. I like some of his stuff, and have been meaning to listen to more. I'm still upset that I missed him when he came here...

Ya he's awesome. I used to loooove pedro the lion, still do, his solo stuff is lacking sometimes. An ex boardie works for his management company too.

ps, this leaked today.

This hasn't really grown on me yet to be honest. I feel the quality of songs on Fewer Moving Parts was better and it hasn't immediately grabbed me like all the other Bazan/PTL records have.

I can't find it =(

pm.

*bows to the almighty*

as repayment you can tell me if it's worth listening to.

Well it's basically another Pedro the Lion album, so if you like them then it's worth listening to.

True bra', I do like myself some Pedro. I think we all do!

he came to Australia around the same time as the august death cab tour,bad timing hopefully he'll venture back

"Hard To Be" is absolutely amazing. It's really doing it for me right now, maybe because I relate to his issues.

not bad I guess.

This is out on Tuesday. Also, pick up the Ramona Falls CD.
