Los Campesinos

We passed by a new organic furniture store today in the East Village in NYC and thought ‘Wow, how ugly is that crap!’…but this could be the work of modern day peasants, who take pride in their DIY creations. Maybe that’s what Los Campesinos were thinking when they chose to name their band after the Spanish word for craftsmen…kinda faux real, being that they’re from Wales! Check them out live tonight, doing tracks from current album Romance is Boring.
