The Low Anthem :: Oh My God, Charlie Darwin

low-anthem

The Low Anthem and their album Oh My God, Charlie Darwin aren’t exactly new kids on the block. However, their record was just picked up by Nonesuch and is on it’s way to a re-release which should garner it considerable attention going forward.

The band’s chameleon sound takes them from channeling Tom Waits on some tracks (“The Horizon Is A Beltway”) to songs that would feel right at home on a Fleet Foxes record (“Charlie Darwin”). You can grab the latter track as a free and legal download below and look for my favorite track from the album, “Ticket Taker” on this week’s podcast.

    Great record – if anyone in the Boston/Providence area I know that Newbury Comics still has copies of the self-releaseed version if you want to pick it up
