Monsters of Folk release their first single.

Monsters of Folk, the collaboration between M. Ward, Jim James (or Yim Yames as that crazy asshole is going by these days) and that chick that kind of looks like Kristin Stewart, has just released the first single for download on their website Monstersoffolk.com. We’re too lazy to hyperlink that site so just suck it up and apple - V that shit.
The Song is called say please and it’s quite the corker…in a sort of bland, classic rocker kind of way. Don’t get us wrong, we think the song is okay but it’s nowhere near as good as anything M. Ward or Jim James has written before. To be fair, it is leaps and bounds better than anything Bright Eyes ever cried out.
We over heard someone in our office say that this “supergroup” is the Traveling Wilburys of our time. We think that’s a pretty fair assessment.
