The Walkmen - The Rat (Live from Juan's Basement)


The Walkmen have been a personal fav. since way back when my best buddy/heterosexual life partner introduced them to me. He threw together a compilation of music that has tested the sands of time and has remained to this date one of the greatest mix tapes I have ever heard, "The Rat" being one of those songs... I must say, this song is epic!

The video comes from a website called Pitchfork which has risen from the ashes of the underground to become the most popular of alt/indie music websites. On this particular site there is a link called pitchfork tv consisting of various shows that the wonderful people at Pitchfork have created for our viewing pleasure, my favorite being Juan's Basement. Juan's Basement is just as it sounds. Bands put together a set list of music they want to play and them proceed to play it in the basement of a young gentleman named Juan. As always, if you like it, go to the website for more golden nuggets of joy!
