The weather at this weekend's inaugural Outside Lands festival in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park may have been a tad chilly for a summer rockathon, but it suited the Walkmen's dark-hued balladry and pale skin tones just fine.

What? Reeling in the amped up sonic 2002's amped up debut Everyone Who Pretended to Like Me is Gone, indie rocker the Walkmen -- whose last effort interpreted Harry Nilsson's 1973 collaboration with John Lennon, Pussycats -- now present their drearier, bluesier side with their fourth album, You & Me.

New Walkmen Album Available… Today… For $5.

The New York indie rockers make their highly anticipated fourth record, You and Me, available for download today for a special cause. Listen to a stream of "Red Moon" to help make up your mind about the purchase.

That's right, another highly awaited record is being digitally released on an unsuspecting public -- but this time, there's a twist. NYC mope-rockers the Walkmen have teamed up with Amie Street to release You and Me, their follow-up to 2006's A Hundred Miles Off, three weeks before its physical release date for the more-than-a-bargain price of $5.
