Self Released
Buy: Bandcamp (NYOP)
In 2013, Oklahoma City’s Husbands released an absolutely incredible, full-length indie rock Christmas album (XMAS), and they are back once again with yet another! XMAS 2 is made in the same spirit as the original, with originals and wholly-reimagined covers living side-by-side in a completely cohesive collage of chillwave/indie rock/Boards of Canada/Animal Collective goodness. Honestly, I am a bit more than halfway through listening to the record (I just got back from a family function) and have been gnawing at the bit to do so… so this is a half-review as I wait to conclude what promises to be another incredible record by Husbands.
Bottom Line: It is early, but I am loving this.
This is hands down the find of the season. I missed your post last spring somehow, but I am getting both albums NOW NOW NOW. My socks are rolling up and down!
