The pride of North Carolina (which is also a brand of sausage I think), the Avett Brothers released their new video for Slight Figure of Speech on Funny or Die with Andy Daly. Yup, the Avett’s have out Weezered Weezer.

In addition to having the good sense to make a video that will get passed around to people who wouldn’t normally hear their music, three of the Avett’s previous albums are marked down to $5 on Amazon. For the low, low cost of feeding a starving child from one of those commercials for a day, you could get a full album of road tested, bad ass folk grass. Ah shit, well, maybe you should give the starving kids some money too. It’s almost Thanksgiving, dick.
