Truth is, I love him.

Alexander Ebert, that is!

He’s the lead singer of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, and he just put out his solo album March 1st.  While I love the whole album, I’m obsessed with the  single “Truth.” I’ve had it on repeat since I found it in January.

He spews the lyrics out like a raw, hip-hop track, and it’s different from every song on the album; even his work with Edward Sharpe and Ima Robot. .

My favorite lyric from the song is,

“Every little lie in this world come from the bible
Say you’re my lover, say you’re my homie,
Tilt my chin back slit my throat take a bath in my blood get to know me
All out of my secrets
All my enemies are turning into my teachers.”

I’ve had the pleasure of seeing him live with Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, and he’s amazing! The energy and magnetism he has blows me away.Everything he touches is gold.I might be bias, because I’m kind of in love with him.At least I’m telling the truth.
