We saw
Frog Eyes at Johnny Brenda's on May 17th. Man, that was over a month ago.
They were just as amazing as I thought they'd be. Amazing. The first time I heard Frog Eyes I thought, "What the hell?!?!" And the second time. But then they started growing on me. I was completely won over when I discovered their songs have names like:
The Fox Speaks To His Wife Who Is Not Quite Sure
Krull Fire Wedding
Silence But Not For The Gentle Tinkling Of The Flowing Creek
The Horse Used To Wear A Crown
Our Lordship Has Devised A New Billing System
A Library Used To Be (Black Hole And Its Concentrated Edges)
I'm Telling You That Cities Were Never Ever Conceived Like This
See, how can you not love a band that so thoughtfully and completely names their songs? The answer: You can't not love them. Also, the chick is the drummer. I love lady drummers. :)
If you're interested, my favorite album is The Golden River. Love it!
