Monroe fucking Mustang.
Those Texan sons of bitches are back. Thank Jesus.
A long time ago I use to buy every album that looked remotely interesting. The funny thing is, I was a poor college student. How did I afford it? I ate a lot of beans.
Anyway, one of those interesting albums was an EP by Monroe Mustang, I am the Only Running Footman. Apparently 5 guys wrote one song each. They're all winners. And not "winners" like in the special olympics, where everyone gets a medal.
It's hard for me to imagine why bands like Okkervil River and the Apples in Stereo became so incredibly popular when there was already one band that combined the best of both.
It's a no brainer.
Anyway, "Universe" is from their newest, Monroe Mustang, The Imaginary Band, Regretfully Declines, a kickass return to mopey and bedroom-produced pop. Check it.
