Exclusively Yours, Molly Shannon, Molly Shannon
May 29th, 2008
Hey there Seattle Subsonic-ites! Wanted to let you know that one of our local favorites, Molly Shannon, Molly Shannon has given us their freshman release You think yr the Doctor, I think I’m the Sheriff for YOU to download for FREE. That’s right, if you wanted to stop by their website (or their no longer existing myspace page), the music is long gone. You can only get it here, exclusively on Seattle Subsonic.

If you haven’t heard of Molly Shannon, Molly Shannon before, I wrote a post on them a couple of months back styled as a letter to David Lynch. I thought they were a match made in heaven. Here’s a little teaser from the article to give you a taste of what they’re like: “When listening for the first time, you just might think you’re hearing Isaac Brock from Modest Mouse fronting a very raw lo-fi sounding Radiohead. While other tracks like Alice Liddell, and Debbie ‘Debra’ Gibson have a more ambient and entrancing feel that I believe would greatly succeed in a place where music and sound are featured in enhancing the visual art experience. Whether it be the backdrop to create the tone and mood of an intricate slow moving indie film, such as one of your own Mr. Lynch or possibly Mr. Kubrick’s if he was still around, to the background music at a soho art gallery opening accompanying darker avante garde art to further your perception and understanding of the piece.”

I’m definitely looking forward to their latest & greatest and am happy that they chose us to serve up to you, this cool gift. So get it now before it’s going, going, gone!
