The Low Anthem
Celebrating Charles Darwin's 200th birthday (February 12th), The Low Anthem (thelowanthem.com/myspace.com), in association with End of the Road Records (endoftheroadrecords.com), are releasing a special 7" called Charlie Darwin from their album Oh My God, Charlie Darwin (I think the title is pretty clever... like "homosexual, my ass!")
I was only given the title song, and it sounds very folky. Think Simon & Garfunkel and think hippy and running around naked in the woods and you get the general idea. DJ Steve Lamacq reckons they are this year's Fleet Foxes (hear Ceji & my opinion on Fleet Foxes on our podcast).
The band is out on tour, full dates on their 'space and will end up doing SXSW this year.
We like folk, so check back soon for more folky reviews coming up.
