To Show Them The Way

The Lord Dog Bird - The Gift of Song In the Lion's Den.

This is the sound of things completed. It's the sound of the epic journey home, with muffled war drums in the distance, summer crickets on the wind. It's the sound of a refreshing plunge in the ocean from a decent height, a tall drink on a slow day. Finding your way around this song is easy.

Listen: I don't know much about the Lord Dog Bird, other than they have a new album out on Jagjaguwar. It came out last tuesday and it's self-titled. The vocals echo the older prog greats like genesis or yes without getting overly theatrical or ridiculous. The instrumentation is thin but strong, like a new forest.

Anyway, if you're doing summery things in these last few weeks of August, you should do yourself a favor and drink in some Lord Dog Bird. You can buy it from our friends at jagjaguwar here
