Guys! Guys! You only have three more months to find the perfect date for Valentine’s Day, the most important holiday of the Gregorian calendar!!!!! When everything is pink and red and a pale shade of revolting! What will you do if you don’t have someone special into whose face you can shove stale Fanny Farmer nougats? What will you do if you have to go see the latest Ashton Kutcher/Katherine Heigl/Sarah Jessica Parker/annoying “cute” kid/ghost of Charlie Sheen V-Day-related ensemble comedy ALL BY YOURSELF?
Well, thanks to Heartless Bastards, that shit’s no longer a problem. The Austin-based country rockers are gearing up to shoot that poison Arrow through your heeeeeeeart when they release their latest full-length Arrow on February 14. The band’s latest love letter to rock ‘n’ roll comes out on their new label, Partisan, which is home to fellow travelers Deer Tick, Middle Brother, and Dolorean. Arrow was produced by Spoon drummer/co-producer Jim Eno in Austin and is the result of some serious one-woman road trips by main vocalist/guitarist/pianist Erika Wennerstrom. The first single, “Parted Ways” hits airwaves and hearts come December 1, and maybe someday there’ll be a tracklist too.
