i don’t want love or conquered rome / just your voice and a sleeping pill
I was talking with a friend the other night about songwriting, and this is a great song: evocative, sad, plunging us right into the middle of the life on the road. That slide guitar feels like a train whistle in the dark, somehow, and the title of this post is a perfect lyric. I’ve been listening afresh to The Damnwells‘ 2006 album Air Stereo all day today, because there is never a Sunday afternoon that doesn’t sound better with that record reverberating off the walls.
Louisville – The Damnwells
Everyone should own this album.
Name: Heather Browne
Hadn’t heard this one. Might be an album to get. Thanks!

Anyone that loved this should try to find the stripped down version of “I Am a Leaver” that Heather posted a few years ago. Great band.
