The Walkmen
Little House of Savages 7''
Record Collection
2004
Rating: 7.5 busted heads out of 10
I'm thinking I got this Walkmen single as a promo at some point in my life. The title track is also on their fantastic record "Bows + Arrows," as is the b-side "No Christmas While I'm Talking," though the version here is a live version recorded in London in 2002. Two great songs regardless of format.

Mt. Egypt aka Travis Graves was a skateboard dude and he recorded this record with some other skateboard dudes (Brad Staba!). This information is probably only relevant to you if you skateboard. Otherwise, it's better-than-average singer-songwriter fare crossed with indie rock, catchy and enjoyable to be sure though clearly not groundbreaking. First track "NYC" is also on the full-length by the same name as this seven inch. The b-side track "If a Tiger Comes Down" appears to only be here.
