Why do I like this song if what I like is missing? What I like about Hi Lo Trons: Mike Dubué's spastic seizure-vocals that yell and splatter over every song. What's here: vocals filtered through some sort of chimey chorus filter that gives the slightest brushes of the real thing, but mostly keep it hidden in orange angels. I like it because it doesn't sound like Hi Lo Trons, it sounds like something new. So, I'll probably buy this new album too.

The Agnostic Mountain Gospel Choir - "Things I Forgot"
It's a painting, not a sunset. The hay is real but out of place, the coach is made of wood, but wood that used to be a hi-fi. The straw hat is from Value Village (1.99! deal!) and the overalls were used to paint the rumpus room. We're watching from a folding chair, he's up on a stage, swinging his legs underneath, pant legs folded over to hide the Kodiak on his boots.
The guitar picking. That's real. That's it.
