So, the ep and full length are available for purchase at a little thing called the itunes music store. you can also just buy a song if you want. i am also pretty sure that we have some free up here. if you would rather download these, send us a check for .99 or don't. is that nihilistic?

The Neil Young comparison is inevitable. (Sorry, guys.) The four members of the Dying Californian are probably sick of hearing it, but that's just tough -- it's a well-deserved compliment. Veterans of indie/hardcore band Nuzzle, the quartet writes songs about longing and loneliness that are the taut products of many years of rock, but are also as pretty and delicate as the abstract image on the cover of We Are the Birds That Stay, the band's addictive first full-length. It's ultimately the urgency and beauty of Nate Dalton's voice that drives the group, with the singer's impeccable phrasing and his rasp tugging at something in your chest. Seriously: At Dying Californian shows, squint-eyed tough guys with sideburns talk about how the music touches their hearts. These are tunes for, as Zero magazine put it, "your inner indie rock drifter." Levi Fuller and R.W. Lynch share the bill starting at 9 p.m. at the Edinburgh Castle, 950 Geary (at Larkin), S.F.
