Bulletproof Picasso.

There are a few bands that I get excited about.

Set my iPod to repeat and wear the album out, excited.

Roll the windows down and crank that sucker up and sing at the top of my lungs, no matter who's watching, excited.

Know every single word, vocal, and instrumental beat, rhythm, and cadence, excited.

I get this excited about four bands, to be exact.

One of these bands is Train.

Imagine my excitement when Train's new album, Bulletproof Picasso, showed up in my inbox a whole two weeks before it releases.

The thing I love about Train, aside from their catchy beats that get stuck in your head for days, is the clever nuggets they slip into their lyrics.  I smile every time I hear one, like I have an inside joke with them.

Train's Bulletproof Picasso did not disappoint.

You've probably already heard one of the new songs bouncing around the radio, Angel in Blue Jeans, which has soared to the Top 15 of Triple A and Adult Top 40 radio in only a month, joining the band’s successful arsenal of other radio-embraced singles throughout their two-decade career.



Along with Angel in Blue Jeans, I immediately fell in love with the songs Bulletproof Picasso, Wonder What You're Doing For the Rest of Your Life, Don't Grow Up So Fast, Cadillac, Cadillac, Son of a Prison Guard, Just a Memory, Give It All, The Bridge, I'm Drinkin' Tonight, Baby, Happy Birthday (yes!), and I Will Remember.

Oh wait, did I just mention every song on the album?

Guys, it's that good.  Work of genius talent.

Here's a preview of the song Bulletproof Picasso for you to hear before it's even out:



If you're a Train fan you're not going to go wrong with this one, they blew it out of the water like they always do.

If you're not a Train fan, we can't be friends anymore.

You might want to rethink that.
