Quite unlike any other indie pop album you"ll likely hear this year, "The Pestilence Is Coming" is the result of three years of writing and rewriting and an additional year of recording, rerecording, mixing, rerecording, remixing, mastering, etc. The result is a 51-minute assault of home-recorded melody, intricate arrangements boasting over 40 contributing musicians and a conceptual storyline of love, loss and French Canadians.
