"Thankful" is a strong word. I'm having some happy surprises and trying "new" bands along this year but I can say I'm particularly happy about discovering The Afghan Whigs. I admit I didn't really know about them until recently.
I even resisted them for a while because I've been a die-hard fan of Greg Dulli and The Twilight Singers for a couple of years and this AW reunion came right after my favorite TS album, which tour I will never see...
I know everything is backwards here (isn't it always?) but c'est la vie
So I tried it, I liked it and these are the AW's songs I'm happy to have discovered this year:
1.
(can someone explain why they're not playing this fantastic song on this tour?)
(oh, and by far, the best video of them)
