Haley Bonar a veteran singer songwriter brings us this great pop-rock record. Very much like Neko Case in that I feel like she could sing anything and I would love it. Hauntingly beautiful voice. RIYL: New Pornographers, Neko Case, Jeremy Messersmith & Communist.

FCC CLEAN!!

2. (2:23) No Sensitive Man - More post-punk feel instrumentation wise.
3. (4:01) Last War - Held down by the base like and a shuffling drum beat with some ambient warbles on the guitar and a more distant haunting vocal.
