Where is David?

It’s official, my favorite band of the month is Cold War Kids. I know I’m pretty late in finding out about them, but I live in freaking Thailand, dude, give me a break.

Unfortunately, they were on Letterman on the 21st, of December, so that means I have to find a new favorite band soon, real soon.

As usual, the record company completely F’d up when choosing the first single for the album (or maybe it was iTunes, but someone F’d up). “Hang Me Up to Dry” was iTunes single of the week, when it clearly should have been either “Hospital Beds”, “Passing the Hat”, or even “Saint John”. Take a listen and you’ll see what I mean.

I think it was Frank Zappa who said, “writing about music is like dancing about architecture”, so I’ll quit writing now, spare you my impressions of the music, and let you decide for yourself. (free music on their myspace page: http://www.myspace.com/coldwarkids )
