Swan Lake

Canada
So I saw Sunset Rubdown on Wednesday night at Black Cat and wet my pants no less than three times from excitement. Okay, not really. But seriously, Spencer Krug is nothing short of a freaking genius. Both he and another bandmate were seriously ill but still played an amazing set, which included "I'll Believe In Anything," a song Spencer usually plays with his band Wolf Parade. For the new project called Swan Lake he's joined by Dan Bejar of The New Pornographers (and Destroyer) and Carey Mercer of Frog Eyes. How can you go wrong with that lineup? You can't! Their debut disc, Beast Moans, is out from Jagjaguwar on November 21.
