AU: “Epic” from Both Lights (Hometapes, 4/3/12)
A killer jam of an instrumental opener, “Epic” isn’t the most representative of the experimental pop on Both Lights. But a killer jam is a killer jam, and this one features Marnie Stern-esque guitar swirls, layers of banjo, and a helluva sonorous piano/horn groove (imagine the theme to The People’s Court on acid).
Pretty cool list of songs for 2012.
