I saw The War On Drugs on Saturday night, and beforehand I had no clue what to expect from Carter Tanton, the act that is opening for them on all of their current North American dates. As any of you who read my review will know, I was left thoroughly impressed by Carter Tanton and his band. Upon researching the next day I found that Carter is just a few weeks away from releasing a new album called Freeclouds on November 15th. Today his label Western Vinyl is giving away a free MP3 from Freeclouds called “Fake Pretend,” which features another of our favourite underrated solo artists, Marissa Nadler. The song is fuzzy-yet-delicate, and Nadler’s vocals are used to optimum success in these surroundings. Tanton’s aren’t too shabby either.
Grab the MP3 below, and since we’re playing catch up on Carter Tanton we’ve also got two other previously released MP3s from the album “Horrorscope” and “Murderous Joy” for you too.
