Why do we like this?
I got all sorts of excited this morning when I saw The Books leaked a single off their upcoming album, The Way Out. When I say there isn't any other band out there like these guys, I really mean it. Using a slew of random vocal samples and diverse instruments, The Books create a sonic landscape that goes far beyond unique.

I can go on and on about this band, I really could. But I am going to stop there and let this nifty track do the rest of the talking. The Way Out will be dropping in July, their first full-length LP since 2005! Check it out and come back to let us know what you think"¦ - Potholes in my Blog
