new single & album from andrew bird.

my favourite musician, andrew bird, will very shortly be releasing the first single from his upcoming album break it yourself. earlier today, bird revealed that the 'eyeoneye' was "coming next week...", linking to a rolling stone article, which reviewed the song: "who pissed off andrew bird? "go ahead and congratulate yourself", the normally mild-mannered chicagoan snipes over surging guitars on this refreshingly sour preview of his new lp. resentment suits Bird well – even his whistling sounds more urgent". ooh. intriguing to say the least. i cannot wait to hear this man's genius. 

break it yourself, his sixth studio album, is released on march 6 via mom + pop music.
