If there's one thing singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist David Terry loves, it's a juicy pop hook. On his third Aqueduct full-length, Or Give Me Death [stream the entire album here], along with big drum sounds and ELO synth riffs, he's incorporated mariachi horns, string arrangements, layered vocals, and piano lines, making it his most mature release yet. And yes, we say that knowing full well that the album contains "As You Wish" [mp3], which just so happens to be the best blatant Princess Bride-cribbing song EVER.
To celebrate tomorrow's release of this sure-to-be-lauded album--and Aqueduct's all-ages in-store at Easy Street Queen Anne on Friday night--Seattlest is giving away some sweet swag: a copy of Or Give Me Death, a copy of the previous album I Sold Gold, and an Aqueduct poster.

Around The -Ists This Week


For some reason, I had to read this twice because I kept seeing "Viaduct" instead of "Aqueduct".
I think the best Princess Bride-cribbing song ever was actually done by Cloud Cult-Princess Bride.
