The War On Drugs are due to release "Come To The City" on vinyl on 24 January 2012 via Secretly Canadian and for those of you who, like me, might be away from a turntable at the moment, here's the B-side for you to enjoy.
Don't forget to pick up Slave Ambient if you haven't already.
The band will be performing on Soundcheck on 11 January as well.
"Don't Fear The Ghost" is trippy and there's a touch of "Hare Krsna" from Husker Du here!

Born in 1967, I spent most of my life in Maryland before I moved to Hong Kong in late 2011. Perpetually 50 pounds overweight, I'm a non-smoker and a social drinker. Thankful to the forces of The Universe for my life, I'm not very religious now despite having explored various faiths as a young man. I worked in 3 record stores in a college town from 1987 to 1990 and those jobs gave me a lot of joy as well as a musical education. A film fan, I'm partial to the cinema of Hong Kong, especially Shaw Brothers titles. An Anglophile, I also gravitate to British films and music. My youth was spent on Marvel comics; Universal and Hammer horror movies; the magical work of Ray Harryhausen; the classic American films of the 1930s, especially ones starring Jean Harlow; Hanna Barbera cartoons; the music from the glory days of American AM radio; lousy TV reruns; Mego toys; and Godzilla films...
