Of late, Devin Davis has been a frequent namedrop for Death Cab For Cutie's Ben Gibbard - including in a piece for Wired, - but Davis' songs are a far cry from Gibbard's heart-on-sleeve ballads. Instead - giant spiders chase, the White House is exploded, people flee, people fall in love. It's a bombastic folk-pop that makes me want to dive through windows, glass shattering every which-way. Part parade, part cloud-watching, part breathless head-over-heels downhill roll. Go download "Iron Woman" and "Giant Spiders" (although the album version of the latter is far superior), and then buy the remarkable record.
