4.5 out of 5 stars Of the many remarkable local albums put out this summer, Year in the Great Interior is without a doubt near the top of the list. The two-piece indie band is made up of Andre Perry and John Lindenbaum, hailing from Iowa City and Fort Collins, respectively. “Princes of Rubble” opens Years with a stoic, dry humor that belongs on an early Eels record and carries […]
