DOWNLOAD: These United States - West Won + Get Yourself Home (In Search of the Mistress Whose Kisses Are Famous)
What is up with bands putting out so many records this year? Trent Reznor’s releasing stuff as soon as the WAV files hit his iTunes, Jay Reatard is still writing a song a day, Fucked Up put out two full-lengths in nine months, and D.C.’s alt-country heroes These United States have now done the same. Crimes, the latter of the two, came out in September and includes both songs we have for you today, the cascading dirge “West Won” and the more straightforward straw-punk of “Get Yourself Home (In Search of the Mistress Whose Kisses Are Famous).” These guys have a sound that is most assuredly bred from dwelling and traveling across America, but isn’t it a bit ironic that they’re called “These United States” and don’t even technically live in a state? Just saying.
Sounds like: Ryan Adams & The Cardinals, Colour Revolt, Dead Confederate
