Only just had the link emailed to me. I'm half way through the album and it's sounding incredible! Saw them live a few weeks ago and I'd highly recommend going if anyone gets the chance.

Jealous!  I've been dying to see them.  Still haven't listened to their new one yet.

I have never listened to any of their music, not even a second.  Just thaw this thread, and about 10 minutes later received an email from the local promoter saying they're in town on Friday.

I'd never heard of them until Paulie started a thread about them two years ago here.  I guess that one was lost.  Either way, I was sold immediately.  Such an energy and rawness that I figured would be spectacular before my eyes.

absolutely gonna go tonight, it's literally a 5 minute bike ride from our house.  Wish I could give the album a quick listen, but I'm looking forward to it either way.

Damn, this is a good album..I think I only have their daytrotter on my ipod, but I definitely listened to their last album at least a couple times. I remember it being good but jarring track to track. This album flows like butter, and im talkin like the stick of butter not that spray on shit

Totally agree Headdy.  I think it's why I pointed out the brilliant flow of the album with such a variety of incorporated styles for the new one on the favorite records thread.  As you said, their last album was just a little too helter skelter for me as well.

Bravo WD.  I like this direction you're going in!

The show was great, absolutely loved it! The show was a bit shorter than I was hoping, but kick-ass high energy the whole time.

Is that bass player old enough to be in a bar?

[Paulie_Walnuts]

Some of the new stuff live:

White Denim 'Street Joy' live at The Ghost Room

White Denim 'At The Farm' live at The Ghost Room

White Denim 'It's Him' live at The Ghost Room

[Penny Lane]

i love this album...it's straight out of the 70s! i don't even know how to describe it..

[ALady]

I was just telling my friend that while I like all the artists they're cribbing from, I don't particularly like this.   :(

Ho well.

[bold992006]

This album is so good...my favorite of the year so far.

[vespachick]

Best undercard act at Sasquatch! They KILLED it!!!

[Ruckus]

For sure my favorite album so far this year as well.  I just can't believe how they seamlessly blend seemingly disparate styles into a coherent, flowing album.  Truly a big step up from their last album.

I'm saddened though because I thought this would be a great year for music but this is my first album that I really  respect unlike some of my other favorites such as BJoe Lewis who I find to be real fun and that's it.

Around this time last year, I was listening to Futurebirds, Delta Spirit, JRoddy, Phosphorescent, Tallest Man on Earth, Kylesa and Dr. Dog among others.  I really hope the 2nd half is brighter this year.
