The Walkmen is one of the most underrated bands in music history! The songs are melodious and have things to say, the band members put all efforts into performing their songs! I deliberately don't wanna use past tense!

Hamilton´s voice ist just incredible. It makes me think of baby´s being born laughing, of workers singing in the afternoon, of sundays encountering friends and neighboors in the park, of something that is happening all the time, not precisely before our eyes, but in every moment in its self. Englobing the whole moment and life as a whole, while it is still just happening, just another birth, another afternoon, just a small encounter in the park. Makes me think of hope, new possibilites. "It´s gonna be a good year... I tell you I love you... our troubles are over"
