As I wait in an airplane headed to the sunny shores of Malibu for a wedding, I am listening to the LA natives, Local Natives. I haven't really listened to any of the singles released in anticipation other than Past Lives because I think listening to a new album of a band you love is a unique experience that cannot be replicated.

Anyways, I'll let you know what I think. A lot riding on this album in terms of their ability and talent - I've said all this stuff many times before about third albums of super talented bands (like Arctic Monkeys, Vampire Weekend, and Radiohead).

ENJOY
