Out now: new albums and music from Lawn, Casual Burn, Jon Cleary and more New Orleans artists
 

https://media2.fdncms.com/gambit/ima...16781/lawn.jpg Here's another edition of an irregular roundup of local releases:

Blood on the Tracks, the impressive debut full-length album from New Orleans duo Lawn, combines offbeat poetry and day-in-the-life whimsy*with classic pop melodies, bright riffs and urgent bursts of Kinks-like twists and power pop earworms, wriggling under a*signature tape warmth with help from*engineer*Ross Farbe (Video Age).

Its humid, blurry-eyed trips reveals surprisingly clear and carefully crafted*pop sensibilities,*shooting an unconventional and deceptively clever arrow through Beat Happening's unorthodoxy and blushing Brit pop. It's out now on Forged Artifacts.
