MP3s:

summer hymns- Pity and Envy
Misra's blurb:Finally! Three years in the making, and Summer Hymns return with "Backward Masks." Wondering what three years of studio-work, recording, rerecording, overdubbing, mixing and remixing sounds like? Imagine J. Mascis jamming with Galaxie 500. Envision My Morning Jacket produced by Phil Elverum. Jason Lyttle getting the Lambchop treatment. Summer Hymns' latest evokes all of these things – it's their trademark Southern psychedelia rolled into superbly well-crafted songs, pulling together the finest moments of their lengthy discography into one cohesive work. The record is coming November 22nd.
