When a book becomes a band
Yesterday I heard about a band called Blood Meridian -- I'm a little late, since their second record is coming out in the US in August. Thing is, I didn't actually hear what they sounded like. So I tooled around the internet and found this recent live performance on Canada's CBC3. And I wonder, is this what Cormac McCarthy would imagine Blood Meridian should sound like?
I know there is the band The Books ... are there lots of bands named for books?
And The Books, I must note, kick ass. "Lost and Safe" -- great album.

yas, The Books are fantastic cut-mix-music masters; that's not a genre as far as i know just a triple themed description.
maybe did the Boo Radley's have a short lived stint as The To Kill A Mockingbirds? I'd love to hear what the On The Roads sound like!
