It's midterm election day here in the United States Of America. Things are looking pretty good right now, but none of us are going to be able to relax all day. If you've already voted, then it's a day for sitting around and nervously refreshing your feed, hoping for anything that can calm your nervous brain for two seconds.
To that end, may I suggest watching Kurt Vile sing about "too many screens" on your screen? Kurt Vile released his album Philadelphia's Been Good To Me earlier this year, and he's about to kick off the second leg of his North American tour, with Twisted Teens opening. Vile and his Violators were musical guests on Jimmy Fallon's Tonight Show.
They played in front of a bar marquee that said, among other things, "SUP MAYN," and they calmly blasted through the album track "99 BPM." Vile, who doesn't change his affect for television cameras one bit, did some of his great laid-back shredding at the end. This guy still knows exactly who he is. Watch him do his thing below.
Philadelphia's Been Good To Me is out now on Verve.
