We’re throughly enjoying this EP from NYC’s Falling Birds, whose fuzzed up garage rock recalls the The Black Lips, but with a dash of Bright Eyes’ folky storytelling sensibilities and a smattering of classic rock’n’roll thrown in for good measure. The five track EP is called Native America and can be grabbed from Bandcamp here on a name-your-price offer. We suggest you head there right away, … Continue reading Introducing >>> The Falling Birds
