SotW for March 4, 2009

Hello, all. This week's feature is a six-minute opus by Elvis Perkins in Dearland. Perkins comes from a family of performers, his father having played Norman Bates in Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho. Named after the King of Rock n' Roll, Perkins took to music at a young age and released his debut Ash Wednesday in 2007. Almost exactly two years later, he and his band released the self-titled followup Elvis Perkins in Dearland from which we get the Song of the Week, "Send My Fond Regards To Lonelyville."

The song is long without being indulgent and steady without being boring. The album comes out March 10 and high hopes are had by all.
