The Elected's new album

There's some news that after a release of some B-sides at the end of this year, Rilo Kiley is going to call it quits. That is a huge bummer. However, as long as the members of the band keep making music like the Elected and Jenny & Johnny, then I'm a happy camper not at camp. (There's a Salute your Shorts reference in here somewhere, because the lead singer of the Elected used to be on the show... DONKEY LIPS!)

Anyhoodles, the Elected's new album is awesome. Listen and enjoy!
