Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

While we virtually live in a virtual world, you really ought to consider having an object of permanence in your collection. And maybe even acting a bit haughty about it, in reference to the kids today, even if you're one of them? The CD packaging is gorgeous, thanks to the artwork and design of Lincoln Hancock and Ben Spiker. This also gets you immediate download of 13-track album in your choice of 320k mp3, FLAC, or just about any other format you could possibly desire...which means you need never admit to your peers that you paid us for our work when they see you rocking it on your iThing. Just say 'bit torrent' and they'll think you're pretty cool.

lyrics

Lower your action, you could find a better place for the slide
Treating your ladies-of-evening as ladies tonight
In a flash
You're a dance
As a dance
You're a catch
For my hands

The wet sound is tires that roll down a dry road
And shock of cold to my eyesight
When the deer have returned with their own headlights
I speak in patterns, you speak in weather patterns
But actions speak louder than pictures speak more than words
And you've been overheard

So lower your action, you could find a better place for the slide
In a flash
You're a dance
Your dance
Loves the handsome glance of my hands

about

Le Weekend Chapel Hill, North Carolina

Le Weekend is a progressive-minded, skewed-pop-leaning, hyphen-employing rock band from Chapel Hill NC, est. 2006. It faithfully and exuberantly generates the sound of itself playing Le Weekend music. It knows a little about a lot of things, and something about the value in hiding and showing. The rest it kind of fakes, but you could totally have fun with it. ... more

No words to describe this. I believe if you like Spirit of the Beehive, you will like this band. Other highlights are Plants, And Again and Pretty Sure. So much good music out there. JerPz

Fuck Marry Kill

Feminist garage post punk. With titles like "Glue Sniffer", "Pissed" and title track, these are girls behaving badly. But there's also a 60s girl band sensitivity that ameliorates any potential offense with a harmony and melodic sense not normally found in this genre. And there's humour too, great album. agutterfan
