Dec 086. The Walkmen – You and Me
I don’t think I can point to any one thing that made the Walkmen’s previous couple records shitty, especially because I never even really listened to their last LP. I do remember debating seeing them at the Pitchfork festival a few years ago and thinking I’ll watch from the shade. It’s really hot out. But You and Me isn’t quite a comeback album, per se–it’s another aging album, and it’s equally suited to late nights when the party’s over or never really started, or just sitting around thinking about your life with a beer. I guess that doesn’t address the album’s quality, so: it’s freaking great.
