Stand Ins

THE STAND INS is a sequel to 2007's THE STAGE NAMES, the second half of a double album's worth of songs completed by singer-songwriter Will Sheff prior to the first album's release. The songs continue with the lyrical themes and obsessions of THE STAGE NAMES, filled with references to famous bands, authors, films, TV shows, and other bits of high and low culture set to Sheff's moody, guitar-based indie rock tunes. Even the cover art of the two albums links together to form a single image, although both in artwork and in its compelling songs, THE STAND INS also stands alone as a complete work in itself. THE STAND INS is available as a digital download, a standard CD, and a vinyl LP.
