Digging Picastro

Those of you who give a shit about anything I say on this blog might want to check out my latest addiction, Toronto post-rockers Picastro. Someone from their label sent me their new album, Whore Luck, and I'm loving it. You would too if you are into the mid-tempo vortex of sounds accentuated by stringed instruments of the violin family. The album comes out Sept 11th and is Picastro's third album. It features contributions by Owen Pallett (Final Fantasy), who used to play in the band, as well as Jamie Stewart of Xiu Xiu. If you need more convincing, check out the tracks below.
