Pullin’ ‘Tubes: Avett Brothers Love You

While this fall is loaded with a number of highly anticipated albums, the one that seems to have gathered the most buzz over the last few months has been I and Love and You the major label debut from North Carolina-based act The Avett Brothers – which hits stores tomorrow. Stories about this album have been unavoidable, due to the fact that uber-producer extraordinaire Rick Rubin lured the band over to his American Recordings label from their longtime home on Ramseur Records – where they independently put out an astonishing 12 releases – to produce their latest effort.

For long time fans of the band Rubin’s influence may come as a bit of a shock, as he’s moved them away from their brash punk-inspired bluegrass sound, to more lush, pop-infused high and lonesome folk-rock harmonies – crafting a great roots-rock record. Let’s check out the video for the album’s instantly likable title track…
