The Walkmen-In the New Year.

Author: daddyL // Category: Indie, Rock

The Walkmen make great drunken anthems.  Their particular flavor of garage rock succeeds in blending poetic lyrics with crunchy waves of distortion and driving rhythms.  The new track off the forthcoming album You and Me (out September 16th) shows the band playing up their strengths.  Much like “Wake Up,” an inspired track off of Everyone Who Pretended to Like Me is Gone, the sounds on “In the New Year” swell and rise then crumble softly, drawing the listener in yet again.
