Why do we like this?

My expectations going into this new single were quite low. Some of the Dan Deacon I've sampled recently just wasn't to my taste.

What a surprise I got upon hitting play! "True Thrush" is a layered, complex song that keeps my attention the entire way through.

Mr. Deacon's upcoming album America (out August 27th) will be his first since 2009. While it's not unusual for most artists to have a ~3 year gap between albums, I find this instance particularly exceptional because, well, Dan has historically been incredibly prolific. For example, in 2003 he released one EP and three LPs.

By Christiana Bartolini on Jun 23, 2014 | Mesita is back with new single "The Villain," and I'm in awe. This track is truly a progression in James' style, which is always the case. It's super refreshing, with a fearless industrial sound. But that harder side is nicely accompanied by so... read more →
