As previously mentioned, Ted Leo + Pharmacists have a new album, "Living With the Living" coming out March 20. We got a copy of it at the station on Tuesday and after a few listens, I can honestly say it's their most ambitious album yet. Elements of "The Tyranny of Distance" and "Hearts of Oak" can be heard with in the music, and "Shake the Sheets" is heard most clearly in the political messages of the songs. But "Living With the Living" sets itself apart from those three. Though some of the songs are "traditional" Ted Leo tracks, several of them have more edge and even more backbone. The standout track is by far "The Lost Brigade" which is the biggest departure from Ted's previous sound. All in all, another terrific album from this group.
Ted Leo + Pharmacists - Sons of Cain [HIGHLY RECOMMENDED]
Ted Leo + Pharmacists - Bomb. Repeat. Bomb.
