With this post, which directly reproduces an article I wrote for Punknews, I’ve reached a whole new plateau of lazyness. Anyways, happy May Day…

X frontman John Doe released a solo album through Yep Roc Records this past March titled Forever Hasn’t Happened Yet. In the album’s press he comments “This is not punk rock, but it uses all the same ingredients: sex, drugs, death, loss, longing and alienation.” Among the collection of roots oriented tracks is a duet with alt-country darling / New Pornographers‘ member Neko Case titled “Hwy 5.” The song, which was co-written by John’s longtime X collaborator Exene Cervenka, can be found below:
