Fair To Midland - Amarillo Sleeps on My PIllow

Taken from the new album Arrows & Anchors. One reason I like this song is that bit of Western twang the band adds to it, referencing their Texas roots, weaving it into the tone of the song without it sounding silly. If only more bands could be like Fair To Midland, Coheed & Cambria, The Mars Volta, or The Tea Party - able to tap into the mainstream but still able to defy easy genre classification while creating truly great music that transcends the industry attempts to put things in homogenized and sanitized boxes - the music scene today would be so much greater.
