As mentioned on multiple occasions, David Comes To Life is a great album — one of the year’s best — and a more-than-decent “Rock Opera.” Read up on the characters and storyline while you stream the entire thing at NPR.
David Comes To Life is out 6/7 via Matador.

It’s not about the vocals, it’s the lyrics. If you don’t know what I’m talking about look up the “son the father” lyrics from their previous release. As far as I can say about this release it’s ridiculously good.
Screaming doesn’t work? Do you even know what hardcore punk is?
There are plenty of groups out there with pretty singing, if that’s what you’re looking for. Cults seem mostly harmless. Death Cab? Antlers?
This album ROCKS. Pure and simple. Huge, lush sound. May not be everyone’s taste, but it is artfully done and hardly ‘trash’. And they play highly entertaining live shows as well.
So heavy. Can’t wait for this album.
