My Morning Racket

For the last several Saturdays, at approximately 8:00 AM, Ive woken to the sound of a jackhammer, right outside my building, strategically aligned with my eardrum and relentless in its task of refusing me rest.

Yesterday morning, I put my head phones on, broke out the swiffer, and cleaned my apartment. I listened to a little album called Evil Urges, by a little band called My Morning Jacket, from a little place called Heaven. For the unitiated, My Morning Jacket is a Kentucky bred, part hippie, part prog, part dub, part southern soul hard rock band. Theyve been dipped in so many buckets, its hard to describe what they have all over them, other than to say they are covered in awesomness.

Their new jam, Evil Urges comes out in June and it is a gem. See them live.
