Dear Andrew, Don’t Forget About Me. Love, 2009.

Holiday season is over and it’s time to revert my attention to this blog.  I hope everyone is having a great start to the new year.

As it happens every January, I have a wealth of new and not-so-new records to spin after having mass purchased music I either missed or dismissed from the previous year.  One I missed was the debut self-titled release from Raleigh, North Carolina band, The Love Language.  Essentially a solo project of frontman Stuart McLamb, it was recorded in his basement using a 4-track analog machine.  Without ever losing its lo-fi sensibilities, McLamb deftly weaves a wall of instrumentation and catchy melodies that sound both familiar and fresh at the same time.

Lalita, The Love Language (from S/T – Buy Here).
Stars,  The Love Language (from S/T – Buy Here).
Sparxxx, The Love Language (from S/T – Buy Here).

This is my new favorite album – at least until tomorrow.

Posted in Current Favorite.
