I have chosen one of my all time favorite releases for my inaugural full album post. Tacks, The Boy Disaster is a great indie pop band from Austin, Texas. I always have trouble introducing them to my friends due to their ridiculous band name with a confusing comma. This year I had the honor of seeing them play at SXSW in a church, and I was completely blown away. It was easily the highlight of my SXSW 2010 experience. A short EP released in 2006 entitled
Oh, Beatrice is their only release so far (other than a Daytrotter
session they recorded in 2007)
. However, I've e-mailed them and they personally responded explaining that they plan on releasing music at some point this year. Also, their rarely-updated
blog seems to confirm that. I'll keep my fingers crossed. The song that I have chosen to share is the album opener. Hopefully, it will properly whet your appetite to hear the rest of the EP. (Click on the album art to download the EP.)
