CL RECOMMENDS
CL Critic Hal Horowitz Recommends: This Hamilton Leithauser-led outfit took an extended hiatus starting in 2013, but 2022’s reissue of 2008’s You & Me shows they are still alive, albeit without a release in over a decade. Look for new music from these once keyboard oriented sinewy hellions who will likely rely on their older material for the majority of this rare ATL gig. Billed as “an evening with,” it’s more of a “very late evening with” as the midnight start time might alienate all but the most fervent nighthawk fans of these NYC edgy post-punkers. — HH
From the venue:
The Walkmen is a rock band formed in New York in 2000. In the late 90’s, the guys constructed an analogue recording studio in an abandoned Nash Rambler factory in west Harlem, where they self-recorded their first album, Everyone Who Pretended to Like Me is Gone. Three of the members now reside in Brooklyn, and two have moved on to the cheaper pastures of Philadelphia. The band has released 4 albums of original material - including 2008’s You and Me, which still sounds as fresh as the day it was conceived. The band has travelled extensively around the world in the last 8 years, but has always called New York home. They are currently in New York recording a 5th album, which is slated for release in early 2010.
