Fol Chen's Part One: John Shade, Your Fortune's Made was one of those albums I kept forgetting to mention for whatever reason when it came out last year. I kept sleeping on it, and sleeping on it, and sleeping on it. Meanwhile, it made pretty good background music to a few parties I threw in 2009, and really good looking women kept asking me “what is this?”
No more sleeping. 2010 is the year of Fol Chen consciousness! I'll start by letting you know that they covered Prince, and that the Liars are taking them on the road.
