album of the day:
freelance whales "weathervanes"
in honor of the band's debut album dropping today and their show at the bowery (which i'm obviously not at - grrrr), let us toast to freelance whales. i grew up with drummer jake hyman in e brunswick, nj and though pretty much strangers now, i'm excited to hear what he's up to! ps.. the album artwork is awesome.
i found the music extremely fun to listen to. something i would absolutely enjoy live time. so many instruments! so much sound! and what a pleasant-sounding lead singer... it's very busy, but in a good way. each song sounded specially crafted and i really enjoyed it. maybe i'll see them at lollapalooza?!?!
moral of the story: turned into a go-to album
favorie song: the entire album
favorite lyrics: "i am convinced that we should be friends / we compare our hearts to things that fly but cannot land" from 'we can be friends'
BONUS: check out this clip of them live. acoustic. in an apartment hallway. thank you for the awesomeness, daily candy!
