MP3: Owen - Good Friends, Bad Habits

Good news today. A long time favorite of mine - Owen - is releasing a new album appropriately titled New Leaves on Sept 22nd [via Polyvinyl]. You can pre-order the CD, a 180 gram black LP, a mixed color LP or all of the above [if you're that much of a die-hard fan] over @ the Polyvinyl site. I think you also get some sweet buttons and merch for being such a good champ.

The first track we get from New Leaves  is a nice little ditty called "Good Friends, Bad Habits" which kicks off with something a little different for Owen - a light touch of synth. Soon enough, the song goes into the usual acoustic picking style that he [should be] known for. And don't forget the kind of harsh but still lovely lyrics that are whispered ever so gently.

I'm glad to see that Mike Kinsella is actually pretty consistent with his own project. But honestly, can we get a Cap'n Jazz reunion?
