After a couple years of rehearsals in warehouses and converted nightclubs, countless hours shuttling band members between Philly and New York on the Chinatown bus, hundreds of discarded demos, and a distance of many miles separating recording sessions in Oxford, Mississippi and the Big Apple, the Walkmen have finally put the finishing touches on their fourth proper LP, You & Me. The set, clocking in just short of an hour, is due August 19 from their new label, Gigantic Music.

Come August, the Walkmen will bring You & Me to you and I, as they spend a little time on the road in North America.

You & Me:

01 Dónde Está la Playa
02 Flamingos (for Colbert)
03 On the Water
04 In the New Year
05 Seven Years of Holidays (for Stretch)
06 Postcards From Tiny Islands
07 Red Moon
08 Canadian Girl
09 Four Provinces
10 Long Time Ahead of Us
11 The Blue Route
12 New Country
13 I Lost You
14 If Only It Were True

OK, had the first record, it was alright. The others, did nothing for me...I look at them as one of those NY bands that got signed because of The Strokes

I'll put on Bows + Arrows once in a while, and it's not half bad. I don't think I'll be picking this one up on release day.

This is one of the better records I've heard this year, if anyone was wondering.
