Listen@MBV: Apex Manor – “The Year of Magical Drinking”


This week marked the release of The Year of Magical Drinking, the debut album from former Broken Wester Ross Flournoy, under his new nom de guerre Apex Manor. After the Broken West’s 2009 demise, Ross skipped out of Silver Lake for Pasadena, and before long found himself with a big fat bundle of new songs. Here are 10 of ‘em!

(Dig the video for “My My Mind,” too…)

    Sounds a bit Wilcoish – which is all good in my book. I tried getting in to the Broken West but something feel flat for me. Perhaps this new outfit will have more teeth.

    is this site on hiatus?

  3. Mute says:

    I’m wondering the same thing. I hope it’s just temporary. This and the Catbirdseat are my two main go-to sites for my music fix. Thanks Ryan, for both.

    A real bummer if MBV is finished…say it aint so

    They have voice similarity with David Cook. I also like the music video, its simple but really works well. I can also hear the electric bass guitar from the music background.

    I don’t think this is going to last. I think the site is going to have more developments coming. Anyways, yes, I agree with Lester, the voice sounds like Cook. But surely has that unique feel.
