Can't Get Enough Of White Denim's "I Can Tell You"

These days there seems to be a lot of bands doing the "garage-rock" thing, but White Denim is one that turns it on it's head. Don't get me wrong, I love simple, straight-forward...even predictable rock and roll, but once in a while it's good to shake things up...and in this case, really good.

On "I Can Tell You," from their fantastic, off-kilter debut album Workout Holiday, the Austin band channels James Chance, MC5 and The Creation through a funky, quasi-jazz groove that sounds great every time.

I highly recommend that you purchase Workout Holiday, which will be released domestically on 8/5. You can pre-order it now on Amazon.
