The Paper Chase Play Lola's

Spoiler alert, when SubEx puts out its best albums of 2009 list next month you can most certainly expect Paper Chase's tour de force Someday This Could All Be Yours, Vol. 1 to be holding down a spot in the top 5; and not just of local releases either, John Congleton and Co. have seriously advanced our sonic pallates exponentially. Furthermore, Congleton's solo acoustic performance at Dan's Silverleaf a few months ago was perhaps the most solid and moving performances we've seen in years. The way he seemingly slips into a demon-possesed alter ego while performing would be worth catching even without such an impressive album to support.

The Paper Chase performs at Lola's in Ft Worth tonight before venturing overseas for the next few months so it could be the last chance to catch em live and local for some time.
