The title track to My Morning Jacket’s new album Evil Urges, which dropped June 10, might be the greatest pop/rock song since Gnarls Barkley blew our minds with “Crazy.” What makes “Evil Urges” so genius? It’s a singular slab of plastic soul, country, rock and funk that ebbs, flows and soars like a sublime mash up of Bowie, Stones, Prince and Radiohead. Frontman Jim James adopts a Beck-esque falsetto, giving his voice a back alley charm that’s ideal for lusty lines like “It ain’t evil baby, if you ain’t hurting anybody.” The song also manages to work in a little politicking: “dedicate your love to any woman or man.” Did I mention it’s insanely catchy? 4 stars

this album is tits (except for Librarian which makes me mildly puke).. worth mentioning (may be you did) that they're playing at HOB in Orlando in late August... Dr Dog's new album Fate is also impressive..
