THIS AUCTION IS FOR AN UNPLAYED AND RARE TEST PRESSING- THE ART COVER IMAGE IS INCLUDED FOR REFERENCE ONLY. On vinyl for the first time in nearly a decade! 4 stars - AllMusic.com, 9/10 Pitchfork Bows + Arrows is the second album by The Walkmen, originally released in 2004. The album received a great deal of critical acclaim, appearing on several critics' year-end lists. A single, "The Rat" was listed at No. 20 on Pitchfork's top 500 songs of the 2000s and at No. 13 on NME's top 100 songs of the 2000s. This album is available on vinyl again for the first time in nearly a decade. "The band's second album, Bows + Arrows (which was released by the Warner Brothers imprint Record Collection), certainly doesn't sound like your typical major-label debut. Although it's tighter and more polished than the brilliantly shambling Everyone Who Pretended to Like Me Is Gone, any worries about restraints on the band's creativity are dismissed by the first eerie-yet-warm strains of its opening track, 'What's in It for Me': a gentle prologue to the rest of the album, it's about as charmingly off-kilter as the band gets. Walter Martin's organs and keyboards glow like streetlights reflected on rain-slicked pavement on this song, and on Bows + Arrows' other strangely luminous interludes." — AllMusic.com ****IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK BEFORE YOU PURCHASE.
