The Von Bondies – Pawn Shoppe Heart

Review — May 18, 2004

Prior to listening to Pawn Shoppe Heart, my exposure to The Von Bondies had been rather lacking, and the only reason I was even slightly familiar with their name was the same reason anyone else was: Jack White. If you don't know what I'm referring to, it is best …

The Cure is kind of 'in' again so yeah, who knows …
