S.O.D. "A More Perfect Union" by Titus Andronicus

9/17/2016     From the 2010 album "The Monitor," which has been ranked by many entities including at #30 on Pitchfork Media's list of The 100 Best Albums of the Decade So Far.  They named this album after the US Navy Ship, The Monitor, which is the first ironclad ship to be commissioned by the Navy.  It features a mixture of indie rock/folk punk/lo-fi/punk rock and contains themes regarding the American Civil War.  

     Aside from the four regular band members, they used 22 additional musicians including engineers.  In March of 2010 the New Jersey based group was named by Rolling Stone as one of the seven best new bands of the year.  They take their name from the Shakespearean play, "Titus Andronicus" and do some interesting and crazy stuff with their music. Four fantastic albums and 17 singles have been created.  This is the albums lead track. I shall start listening to their music today.
