I know I do this literally every time PigPen does something, but they continue to be awesome, so here's some more stanning:
They just released their first single from their sophomore LP, "Weathervane." And you know how there's that kind of song that builds up to a driving, upbeat bridge or coda that's heavy on bass drum and has tons of voices/instruments? Like "All These Things That I've Done"? (I know there are more, but I'm not thinking of them right now -- "Tables and Chairs"? Oh, and "Down In the Valley" by The Head and the Heart!) It's that kind of song.
You can listen to it here! And you should. They're still very in their folk-rock-indie vein, but I think they're leaning a little more into the rock modifier. The lyrics are still delightfully poetic and slightly incomprehensible, and Ryan Melia's voice and the group's harmonies still hit me right where I live.
