The Black Watch: Pershing/Harvard Square

“John Andrew Fredrick, a prolific songwriter and author – he has published three comic-literary novels and is about to release a book on the early films of Wes Anderson – announced that his long-time, critically revered band (referred to as “a national treasure” by LA Weekly), the black watch would tick no more following the release of the band’s Sugarplum Fairy, Sugarplum Fairy album in early 2015.
“As it turns out, this retirement has lasted less than a year. Set for release on December 4th, Highs & Lows is the band’s 13th release in 27 years and is one of its best. |
“An early review from the venerable magazine The Big Takeover calls the album “high art,” and notes that Fredrick “plies the refined, crafted spaces of post-Velvets pop like Go-Betweens/Orange Juice/Smiths/c86.” [via fanatic]
