Free Download from King Louie’s Missing Monuments

Missing Monuments, Painted White

Garage pop band Missing Monuments, led by rock veteran King Louie, are offering a free MP3 of the song “(It’s Like) XTC” from their recent album, Painted White. In Sam Levine’s July review of the Missing Monuments’ Painted White, he wrote, “In the Springsteen-esque “(It’s Like) XTC,” the narrator makes clever love/drug puns while he and his main squeeze drive in the car listening to their favorite song, again, on the radio (In whatever world it is the band is trying to recreate, the radio is good and doesn’t play Lil Wayne over and over). For the rest of the song, Louie’s lyrics rise to a level of tight pop poetic cleverness that’s maintained throughout the record.”

You can get the whole Painted White album from iTunes or buy it on vinyl.
