Ann Arbor’s country-fried white boy rockers (honestly, that’s what they called themselves in the email) Porchsleeper have a new album out.
Out on TEH INTARWEB!
You can download all of the songs at http://www.porchsleeper.com/preview/
Now you can listen to local music without worrying if the dipshits at Current are just slagging it because they’re mean drunks!
I’ve gotta say I prefer the all-caps.

thanks for the kindness josh. it’s kinda on the honor system, but if folks download the songs it’d sure be a nice gesture if they go ahead and buy the acutal record when it come out next month. making rock is expensive.
release party at the lager house on sat 7/16.

Brian: I dug the songs, and also encourage people to buy the real album (it will likely have pictures of the Porchsleeper men, right? Teh hotzor, sez teh intarweb).
Personally, I was hoping for a little more (though you guys might want to tour with Corndaddy), but it made me more interested in seeing you live than hearing your album. A lot of the mid-tempo stuff doesn’t get me off unless it’s got the live energy behind it.
But hey, I’d rather have people listen to it and disagree (thus buying the album) than never hear it at all.

So, the NYTimes uses “Headlines Like This” while the Chicago Trib uses “Headlines like this”.
Totally matter of style.
