Win The Tallest Man on Earth’s “The Wild Hunt” Vinyl
The Tallest Man on Earth’s The Wild Hunt came out today, woo-hoo. Ever since I got my hands on it, I’ve listened to each song a crazy number of times (except the last one, “Kids on the Run”, because I just can’t get into the piano arrangement).
In addition to the generation-defining “King of Spain”, my current favorites are the folky-punchy “You’re Going Back”, which is full of swagger and youthful arrogance: “You said, driver please, don’t go that fucking way”; and the oddly aged “Thousand Ways”, in which the line between comedy and tragedy is all but faded: ”But I’ll always be blamed for the sun going down with us all / But I’m the light in the middle of every man’s fall” and then, “I bend my arrows down [?] in circles and I shoot around the hill / If I don’t get you in the morning, by the evening I sure will”).
That title track is a killer too. Buy the album!

Ah! I don’t use Twitter, is there any other way for me to spread that link and still be eligible for the contest? TTMoE is phenomenal and has been my favorite artist for over a year now. I’m going to see him at the Highline Ballroom, too!
Any way I can get in on this wonderful raffle?
