Blog: When The Gramophone Rings

We've already heard quite a few cuts from The Walkmen's upcoming 7th album, Heaven , which is due out in June. And now we have another. Not that we're complaining. 'We Can't Be Beat' is a lovely acoustic lament that builds into a warm-hearted foot-stomper in its closing stages. When describing  Heaven , singer Hamilton Leithauser says: "The detachment you can feel throughout our younger records is gone.  We felt like it was time to make a bigger, more generous statement."  Hurry up June the 4th.
