It's My Happy Time Again!
Attention, Attention!! It's that time again...my happy time that is. I know I've mentioned it before, time and time again, but when one of your favorite bands comes out with a new album... It's like Christmas!!!! (Well it's definitely my kinda Christmas!)
Some of the excitement you could say is now somewhat lost. No more trips to the record store, no more waiting to get that shiny new album in the palm of your hands. We all just rush onto itunes to download it as quickly as possible. I miss the days of getting to rip off that impossible plastic covering, check out the album booklet.... covered front to back with private band photos and all of the lyrics to your new favorite songs.
Yes I'm now subject to the rest of the worlds trend of getting everything yesterday. I bought the new album on my iTunes the second it came out, put it right on my iPod and have not stopped listening to it since!
Magpie and The Dandelion, the 8th installment from the one and only.... Avett Brothers! This album is packed full with all those romanticized lyrics I've grown to love from them over the years. Starting off with "Open Ended Life," full of their classic Bluegrass Rockin' sound is simply amazing. The song featured above, "Morning Song" is slow and true to that vintage sound of theirs. The weepy "Apart From Me".... ugh, adorable lyrics - in love with it! Another realization to the fact that anyone who can play a guitar and sing a song like that to me... yup, I'd probably marry you right on the spot!! Add an Avett Brothers beard and Bam! This girls dream come true over here!
So many good jams - i still can't choose a favorite. More investigating needs to be conducted! So please run to the nearest record store or iTunes store and make yourself happy today!
