In between performing at ACL and penning tunes for hit TV medical dramas, Ian Ball of Gomez managed to find some time in his schedule to pen a solo album - Who Goes There. The new songs are lovely, but it sounds like poor Ian’s heart only leads him into grief. Both “Elephant Pharmacy” and “I Knew You Were Trouble” are airy laments about no-good girls leading Ian down paths of drugs and heartache. In other words, the stuff great songs are usually made of. Head over to Stereogum for another nice track, “Failure”, and the album drops next Tuesday (October 30).
