Description
Includes DownloadsShearwatersAnimal Joy, our first album by the band and their eighth overall. Led by Jonathan Meiburg, and featuring drummer Thor Harris, and bassist Kimberly Burke, Shearwater has been a favorite at Sub Pop HQ for many years. Why? Fellow Shearwater fan Gerard Cosloy puts it nicely:
Its been suggestedby fans, detractors, even by the bands founderthat Shearwater and whatever we call underground/indie/whatever-rock in this part of the century are not an obvious fit. And thats true. So much of what we hear these days (the lousy stuff, anyway) is willfully insular; Jonathan Meiburgs songs, by contrast, have constantly tackled bigger questions and been propelled by massive musical ambitions.
