David Wax is Back!

For those of you who weren't reading back in February 2011, or who had forgotten, there's this great band called David Wax Museum. Soon, they'll be releasing an album, and now, as part of their promotion for that album, you can download a pay-what-you-wish sampler of their work: two preview tracks, two old tracks, and a live recording. It's  below, or at this address: http://noisetrade.com/davidwaxmuseum

I cannot vouch for the spamminess or lack thereof at Noisetrade.com, having just downloaded this sampler myself. I can, however, vouch for this awesome band.

I vouched for them in the post linked at the top (and seriously, it's linked right here, just read it).

This is one of the bands that I would go to see at any time. They've taken popular/independent music's now-waning interest in American folk music and done something really unique with it. As anyone who listens to a lot of the current folk-revival movement can confirm, that's not easy to do. Also, they put on a killer live show.
