out now on Bladen County records (2009)
I've only room for another quick fly-by, so here goes. The Love Language was one of my first exciting new finds when I returned from the Orient earlier this spring. The self-titled debut album from this Raleigh, North Carolina group is a real corker, chock full of spirited sing-along jams that lurch and shuffle their scratchy melodies into your memory banks a la Guided By Voices. Led by the inspired charge of lead singer/songwriter/down-on-his-luckster Stu Mclamb, this record showcases a brash and versatile new talent with promise to spare. In the meantime, however, be sure to check out the classic pop-writing genius of "Lalita," "Sparxx," or "Stars."
