Nocturnal and Energetic

Derek from Pretty Girls Make Graves is running an on-the-road-with-the-band (as opposed to On The Road with Kerouac) kind of blog, titled Cave Singing, and the group's new album, Elan Vital, is getting a lot of good press. It should be an interesting summer for the band. I really dig The Nocturnal House, a track dripping with energy - it has great drums, a whistle, slightly-echoing vocals and choral shouts. What more could a person want?
