One of my favorite indie rock bands are back with a new cd come May and I have to say 2007 is shaping up to be a great year. We have new Air out next month, Son Volt, Wilco and Grinderman on the way and now this. Now if we can only get Ryan Adams to drop a cd this year (like that is a hard thing to do) 2007 may shape up to be one of the best years in music.....
