<div class='description'><p>Fromthing Somethat, the tongue-twister title of legendary L.A. dreampop/indiepop foursome, The Black Watch's nineteenth LP, comes from a mistake front man John Andrew Fredrick made whilst singing a line from the song "The Lonesome Death of Mary Hansen." Cleverly self-effacing album titles have been a part of this serious band's aesthetic ever since 2011's well-received Led Zeppelin Five (along with such titles as "Jiggery-Pokery", "After the Gold Room", "The Gospel According To John", and "Magic Johnson"). This record hops, skips, and jumps from dreamy-floaty (the opening number, "St Fair Isle Sweater") to dance-y (the almost-disco of "The Nothing That Is") to majestic ("All I Know (Is That the Moon is Beautiful)" to dark/ominous ("Drip, Drip, Drip") and back again to dreamlike ("For Always Then To Keep" and the soaring closing lullaby "I'm Not Hung Up"). And yet it's all of a piece-a record that perhaps sounds like every 60's, 80's, or 90's guitar band you've ever loved and, well, unmistakably a The Black Watch record.</p></div> <br><ul><li>Disc 1, Track: 1 - Saint Fair Isle Sweater<li>Disc 1, Track: 2 - The Nothing That Is<li>Disc 1, Track: 3 - The Lonesome Death of Mary Hansen<li>Disc 1, Track: 4 - Green Stars, Clouds Departing<li>Disc 1, Track: 5 - Drip, Drip, Drip<li>Disc 1, Track: 6 - All I Know (Is That the Moon Is Beautiful)<li>Disc 1, Track: 7 - Such Like Friendly Demons<li>Disc 1, Track: 8 - The Haves & Nots<li>Disc 1, Track: 9 - For Alw
