Alt-country is when you sing about people who work hard. That doesn’t mean you have to work hard yourself, though. Somebody needs to mention this to These United States because, obviously, the band has been mislead. In the last 18 months the These United States—now evidently split between DC and Louisville, KY—has twice undergone the whole record album-release album-tour album process. Now it’s gearing up to give the whole rigmarole yet another go with Everything Touches Everything, it’s third full-length.

Anyway, the first single “I Want You To Keep Everything,” which rocks in that vast and spacious Steve Lillywhite sense, recently found its way onto the internet.
