Drug Cabin: Yard Work (2015)
Some time later, after trying to carry on with a new iteration of the band but plagued by the usual mishegoss (i.e. the record label going bankrupt as a new album was being readied), singer Marcus Congleton finally released new music as Drug Cabin. 2015's Yard Work, while lacking the sonic punch of the Ambulance Ltd. album, is nonetheless quite great, a more stripped-down, jangly affair that calls to mind bands like Real Estate, a folk-tinged pop sound best suited for quiet afternoons at home.
The record occasionally lifts off a bit more, like on the perky "Bubbles," but for the most part moves at a pleasantly relaxed pace, with charming, gentle ballads like the sleek "Baywatch" and "Goldenwall." Nice stuff, check it out at Bandcamp.
Here's an audio rip of "Bubbles":
