The M’s: “Mansion in the Valley”

March 31st, 2006

I’m on a huge The M’s kick right now. I just got Future Women and am loving every minute of it. Also, it compliments my rediscovery of T Rex quite nicely. I picked up Electric Warrior on vinyl today. Between those two albums, it’s been pretty rough for any other bands to get any ear-time.

Today was the most beautiful day ever. A group of my friends and I went outside and played four-square in front of our dorm and played my “Welcome Springtime” (I swear it’ll be put online soon). I’m just kicking myself for not adding “Mansion in the Valley” to it before I dashed downstairs. I mean, this has everything you need on a beautiful spring day: a stompingly simple guitar part, a well crafted melody, and some soaring vocals thrown in for good measure. I don’t know what mystic vault these kids opened up, but if their next album is half as good as this one, we’re in for a treat.
