Well it looks like iTunes snuck one by me. Just when I thought I missed out on some of the best instrumental rock, or just great music in general from last year, I noticed iTunes had a new album up by This Will Destroy You, S/T released in January of 2007. As it turns out, as I was perusing TWDY's MySpace page, I noticed the release date is slated for 1/29/08. Odd how it lists 1/8/07 as the release date, but if you set up your iTunes alerts like me, you probably feel like you missed out on the reminder. Or maybe I'm just completely misled altogether?
Recorded by John Congelton (Explosions in the Sky), This Will Destroy You is slowly taking over as my favorite shoegaze, space rock group. Sadly, even more so than the originals who changed the face of the game back in 2000. The album's release is still 1/29/08, but you can still download it on iTunes right now. These guys are well worth supporting.
