The U & U Show 342 | Last Batch Before The Recaps



Sufjan Stevens : Sister Winter : Songs For Christmas (2001-2006)
-          Possibly my #1 favorite Christmas song ever.
-          This gives him an even 10 Christmas albums full of classics and originals.
-          I don't listen to any other holiday music anymore.



The War On Drugs : Red Eyes : Lost In The Dream (2014)
-          Latest single from their forthcoming 3rd full length.
-          Kurt Vile’s former outfit is still providing long time Vile fans sounds more in the vein of his older, soaring, drone- heavy work.
