the dears

the canadian collective, headed by the dramatic murray lightburn, has seen their fair share of musicians come and go over the years, but their new album, degeneration street, with returning members from missiles, shows how drama can be brushed under the table and awesome music can still be made. the band’s fifth album is classic dears, powerful and orchestral. it’s a home run and quite the return. the album is out this tuesday and it’s a must must have. yes, two musts. www.thedears.org
