The Walkmen's new album , You and Me, is slated for an August 19th release, but the band has decided to let that leak a little early. In a very charitable move, they have put their LP up for sale on aimstreet.com as a donation to the Memorial Sloan Cancer Center. This is what it's all about:
"All donations go to Memorial SLoan- Kettering Cancer Center in honor of Luca Vasallo, a friend to the band and a current patient who is seven months old and doing a great job fighting a very difficult disease,' said Peter Bauer of The Walkmen. "This is a very good organization that certainly deserves the attention."
Pretty serious stuff, but for only $5 you can support a human in need plus get an excellent LP from a band that many wrote off early in their career. Out of all of those fateful OC bands, who would've thought these guys would still be around. Hit up the link below and pick up You and Me today.
