Y’all need some good heartland-indie rock for your July 4 weekend? Of course you do. Empty Country, the newer project of former Cymbals Eat Guitars leader Joseph D’Agostino, opened for fellow Stereogum-beloved rockers Los Campesinos! back in May at the Brooklyn Monarch. It was an excellent show. Turns out D’Agostino had the whole Empty Country set taped, and now he’s releasing it as a surprise album called — you’re never gonna believe this — Live In NYC. It doesn’t officially drop until midnight tonight, but we have an exclusive stream of it for you lucky readers below.
