So I have been hearing rumblings of this new awesome album, Palindrome Hunches, from Neil Halstead and I FINALLY listened to the lead off track Full Moon Rising. God damn, it is a beauty!
I have been a casual fan (with spurts of fanboy status) for a few years since the fantastic Oh! Mighty Engine album from 2008 and this looks to be another winner if this first track is any indication. The album hits the proverbial shelves on September 11th courtesy of Brushfire Records. So keep an ear out for it already.

As a bonus take a listen to a couple of tracks from Halstead’s MySpace Transmissions EP. Yes, MySpace. It’s really good, so don’t judge so quickly!
“Two Stones in My Pocket”
“Witless Or Wise”
Enjoy your song of the day and sit along with me in the long wait till the September 11th album release.
