So it's 2002…I'm hanging out at a record store in Richmond, VA, talking to a clerk about Bauhaus.

"Have you heard The Notwist yet?" he asks.

"No," I say.

"Listen to this, man. Fucking awesome band from Germany."

Enter The Notwist's Neon Golden into the tattooed top ten lists on my mind.

Now, 6 years later, they're releasing a follow-up, The Devil, You + Me, coming out some time this spring (press release didn't say…but it did include a link to the first single.)
