Since you'll be singing "Early Morning Hymns" (i.e. puking) anyways on Saturday morning, why not spend New Year's singing them with Old Canes? Appleseed Cast frontman Chris Crisci indulged his softer, more exotic side with Old Canes' debut album of said name, which told literate tales of love gone awry set to an assortment of acoustic guitars, toy pianos, bells and ramshackle drums. Openers Minus Story channel the choicest chunks of Neutral Milk Hotel, John Vanderslice and Modest Mouse into their pawn-shop indie rock palette, while Patrick Clendenin may be the lost lovechild of Donovan and Neil Diamond with his sweeter-than-sugar folk pop.
