Engine Down rules. Okay, so that's a bit too much editorializing, but they really do, I swear. They're coming out with a new album called "Demure" on Lovitt Records on April 1st [and that's no joke! Ah, I'm not funny, sorry.], and you can currently get some MP3s off the album at Lovitt's sounds page or at EngineDown.com. The band also kicked off their semi-national tour tonight in LA, and will be touring through the South and the East coast, with a string of shows in April with Karate and Ted Leo/Pharmacists.
