#7 Album of 2008: You & Me - The Walkmen






You & Me

The Walkmen
Gigantic Records.



You & Me is a telling and personal record, and it’s this parallel dividing formality from primal nature (which even graces this record’s artwork - what are those well-dressed ladies whispering about?) that deepens the dangerous impulses and emotions within. Hands down, no other record in 2008 will rival You & Me’s flawless hybrid of being a liberating depressant and drinking album at the same time. An immense and staggering achievement.”
