Amy Ray's New Album!



So in linking Daemon Records to the last entry, I find that Amy Ray has a new album!! Now secretly I have always liked Amy just a little more than Emily... not as a person, but musically. Her last album Stag was a great solo effort and I'm excited to hear the new album. This is also where "Driver Education" came from that I heard in concert.

Here it is for you to check out:

Here is also a clip from the website describing the album:

"Prom roams over the vast territory of love and gender as contained in the physicality of nature. The subject matter spans a delicate landscape (suicide, racism, gender identification, political idealism, homophobia) but because she sees this awkward journey as both a struggle and a celebration, Ray comes across as curious and unafraid. From the Clash-meets-Phil Spector anthem “Driver Education” to the speedy and catchy social commentary “Blender,” Ray again occupies the space between rock, old-school punk, and folk, and claims this ground as her own"

It's out now so go get your copy at your favorite independent record store!
