S6E303 - American Music Club ’Engine’ with Tim Hinely

We hate to throw around the phrase 'criminally unheralded', but it sure does seem to fit San Francisco slowcore pioneers American Music Club and lead singer/songwriter Mark Eitzel. This week's guest, DAGGERzine creator Tim Hinely, brings us their 2nd album, 'Engine'. Warning: Eitzel's poignant, devastatingly raw songs will get under your skin and fester. Beautifully.
"And anything beautiful
That you can contrive
Has no desire to survive..."
