Man, I loved this album when it came out. Thanks for reminding me it exists. Time to go find it and spin it!

Where to find ren:
One of my favorite bands of all time. I like Expo '86 better but this is still an excellent album. The lead singer's side project is good too the band is called Sunset Rubdown.
I had no idea. I love sunset and wolf parade.
Haha, yeah. Same guy. I lost my shit when I disxovered them because it was like finding more Wolf Parade (somewhat, they do have a different, more experimental and sweeping opera-ish sound). Dragonslayer is hands down one of my favorite albums of all time.
Oh cool! I'll have to check that out. Thanks for recommending
Love the lyrics, discordance and that melody that enters halfway thru - it kinda rambles along and then hops up. The video is neat too.
