latest album I bought

[Roody_Yogurt]

One of my favorite bands, the Wrens, just released an album after several years of silence (although in that time, they did do a kickass cover of Duran Duran's "The Seventh Stranger" on a tribute album). It's officially out in September, but right now, people can buy the limited press from Absolutely Kosher records. I definitely recommend it to anyone who has felt done right by my music choices in the past.

Just to make sure that no one goes into this completely cold, though, I put some mp3s of some of their older stuff at http://www.plover.net/~ellison/wrens .

There's also a song from the new album at the Absolutely Kosher webpage: http://www.absolutelykosher.com/wrens.html .

My first impressions are that while this new album doesn't seem to quite have the shining moments of some of their past albums (that can all be found very cheap at used record stores online and offf), it's pretty consistent and it's just really nice to hear from these guys again.
