Catfish and the Bottleman | Late on the Train pt 2

"How many times have you listened to The Balcony?"
"More than I can count."

Sunday night I tuned into Radio 104.5's new music show. I heard "Cocoon" and instantly fell in love. 
I've heard "Kathleen", the bands popular single, a few times. I always thought it was a tune but found myself lazy of listening to their album. A couple weeks back I remember listening to their live lounge of Kanye's "Black Skinhead", my only thought was, "damn! That voice."
But of course the band is more than just one man. Upon listening to the album, countless times in just 2 days, I realized they had something utterly special. 
Something so reminisant of the early Arctic  Monkeys mixed with the up and coming Jake Bugg. CATB is a breath of fresh air for the rock world. 
If you haven't checked them out please, please do.  
My favorites on the album are:
Cocoon
Kathleen
Hourglass
Sidewinder
