The Dying Californian

Label: Turn
Genre: Country, Rock

The Dying Californian's frayed alt-country ballads pack such subtly heartbreaking lyrics, you may find yourself hitting rewind the same way you used to with R.E.M.'s Murmur. Exhibit A, from "Don't Tell Me You Love Me": "If you tell me you love me/It would be a bad thing/My heart would start wondering/About the songs it could sing."
