good music for a good cause

The Walkmen’s first album, Bows + Arrows is my all-time favorite winter listen. Their second album, A Hundred Miles Off, not so much. But their THIRD album, You and Me… is being touted as a return to their early days of face melting, balls through the wall sockets rock. Stereogum said it delivers like Dylan and swaggers like the Strokes.

I’m listening to it right now, and I can promise that you won’t be disappointed. Plus, (if good music isn’t incentive enough) if you buy the album from Amie Street for a measly 5 dollars, you’re also supporting a worthy cause. Specifically, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, where Luca, a seven month old infant and honorary rhythm guitarist for the band, is undergoing treatment for a rare form of leukemia, Childhood Acute Myelogenous.

Enjoy the rock and make the world a better place: Buy the Album Now

BTW, If Amie Street sounds familiar, you may remember it as the only place that had those hot tracks by Eliot Spitzer’s other other, bought and paid for, half, Ashley Dupre.
