we'll all die someday.

Headlights are from Illinois. That's right. I'm back to posting what I'm most comfortable with. Headlights have really only officially released four songs. But they've done so three times. Polyvinyl released their Enemies EP as a limited run mailorder exclusive before coming to their senses and issuing it as a genuine release. What you need to know is that these songs are mind-bending. With electronic ornamentation over pedal steel, violin, spacious rock drums full of intent, supporting airy male and female voices singing moody and triumphant songs. Their MySpace page contains links to better reviews of this EP, a list of tour dates that takes its cue from the Engergizer Bunny, and two songs from Enemies and two newer songs. Their endless tour sees them add a touring member, Nick Sandborn. You may know him from Decibully. If not, you should.
Their EP is available through Polyvinyl on CD and through Mi Amante on vinyl (with a bonus song).
You should attain these songs, even though a bulk of them are available at your fingertips on their website and on MySpace. I present to you my favorite cut, or at least the one that is most prone to stay in my head for days.
