Philly locals, Red Means Run are back with their latest release Love of Blindness. It’s a great collection of country tinged tunes and an excellent follow up to their 2013 release, All Things Said and Done.

Bake: I’m drunk and bored so let’s get this bitch going. I like this album. I truly do. I like Good News more than most and I think the Lonesome Crowded West is ridiculously overrated. But this album I think I like this as much as your average bear, no more no less. But you…
