sadly, stephen malkmus and his jicks wont becoming to new orleans on his upcoming tour. this is not to say he wont in the near future, but who knows if this dude, emil amos, who performs under the moniker holy sons, will be opening up for him at that time. thats a damn shame too, cause i would really like to hear more from this guy. what i gather from the press release emil is all over the board, at least musically. last year’s survivalist tales! was a combination of “blade runner-esque synths and 70′s easy-listening psych.” sounds interesting to say the least. his backing band for the tour is made up members of grails and dolorean, btw. i really dig this song, for what its worth. anyone hear the above mentioned record?
