i haven’t posted a new track in ages because of a new music drought i’m going through, but i think an amoeba trip is pending now that the new okkervil river album is out. instead of waiting to get that and posting another song off there, since i already put up one of those a month ago, i’ll share the song that’ll probably inspire a companion purchase: the wonderful beirut track, elephant gun. it has a shared fanciful quality with certain decemberists songs via the trumpet, and also the soundtrack to amelie with its old-european flavor. could do without the drawn out ending, but if you catch the video like i did the other day on subterranean, you get to forgo that little epilogue and also see some great moustaches and a bunch of gypsy-looking people do crazy dances. it’s good stuff, trust me.
