In the spirit of the month of Halloween it seems only proper to share a song off a newly released album from Sunset Rubdown. You'll love the worn vocals and the deep lyrics. Oh you will!

They are yet another fabulous indie rock band in from Canada; Montreal to be exact. But don't do any silly comperisons, you know I hate that! Sunset Rubdown began as a solo project of Spencer Krug (Wolf Parade). It began in 2005 and now nearing the end of 2007 they have 3 full length albums and one self-titled EP.

Though leaked over the summer, their latest record Random Spirit Lover, officially released today, October 9, 2007. This is their first release with the Jagjaguwar label.

Jagjaguwar speaks of the new album wonderfully, "The woven lyrics and singular songwriting style heard in Sunset Rubdown invoke a mythological world, where magical narratives and tiny metaphors give shape to ordinary objects in the room; sometimes beautiful, sometimes beastly."

Listen to track #5:
Sunset Rubdown - "Winged/Wicked Things" (mp3)
and to track #3:
Sunset Rubdown - "Up on Your Leopard, Upon the End of Your Feral Days" (mp3)

Buy their music!

P.S. A limited amount of hand-numbered and silk-screened Sunset Rubdown posters will be given away for free to those buying the new album at select retail establishments.
