This week’s song of the week is The Broken West’s “Terror for Two” from their newest release “Now or Heaven.” As a fan of 80′s New Wave, the record touches on some of the same melancholy tones as The Smiths or The Cars, but does so while engaging in larger subject matter than ones own broken heart.

I was originally captured by the mod-rock meets alt-country vibe of their 2007 release “I Can’t Go On, I’ll Go On” and was really pleased to hear them experiment even further outside with “Now or Heaven.”  Melody holds the new album together just as it does “I Can’t Go On…”

If you’d like to “Dig Deeper,” Check out “Down in the Valley” from “I Can’t Go On…”
