Local Support 031: The Wilbert Montgomery Episode

Jon Solomon has done it again. Episode 031 of Local Support, which we have dubbed the Wilbert Montgomery Episode, dedicating it to a number-31-jersey-wearing athlete, per Jon's request, certainly packs a punch. And like Montgomery, who broke a multitude of Eagles' rushing records, this episode may hold the record for most diverse episode of Local Support to date.
Kicking off with the soft explorations of Lewis and Clarke, one might assume they're on a mellow trip, but Animus quickly mixes things up with an eastern-tinged percussion track. And if you're looking for some political punk, Our Time and La Resistance deliver soon enough.
And yes, there is the slow, down-home strumming of Stephen P. Anderson and the wistful musings of Soft People, but pay close attention to the Brian Jonestown Massacre thing that The Cobbs (opening for B.R.M.C. at the TLA June 1) and On Mono have going on. It's good stuff, so go get it.
