Music Monday

Like careening down a cascading waterfall of sound with a tiny japanese bug in your ear all the while. Were someone to ask, that's how I'd describe listening to Mice Parade. Brainchild of sometimes-Swirlie and shoegazing aficionado, Adam Pierce (mix those letters up...), the band's always been one that impressed me immensely at how elegantly they can craft the chaos and constant crashing of intricate instrumentation around Caroline Lufkin's delicately screeching voice. This single from their forthcoming album, What It Means To Be Left Handed, is no exception. To boot, it's probably one of their best songs to date. It dips and dives with this wildly epic, choral feel and it totally has me psyched for the September 14th release of the full-length. Especially since it's also got a cover of the early Lemonheads song, Malo Cup. Nice. So check out this week's Song of the Week, "In Between Times", and then listen to the rest of the tracks from the album or pre-order it over at their label, Fat Cat Records. Not to be confused with our cat's LLC, Fat Cat Imports/Exports. Don't ask what they import/export...
