Rhett Miller - 'The Believer' (Feb. 28)

Fuck yeah! Rhett Miller delivers a solo record that reflects his Kinks-ian obsessions and sounds notably less like the Old 97's than his solo debut (The Instigator). Drizzle a little Ziggy-era Bowie on for good measure and The Believer is an early contender for record of the year.

Don't believe me ('cause you're not a Believer)? Check it out at Rhett's MySpace site here.
