sirshannon How does a band release a modern record that can stand up to The Unsustainable Lifestyle, one of the greatest albums of our century? This is how.

Saloptus Discovered this band through an episode of 99% Invisible by Roman Mars. The song was Exit without saving. I was driving home and it was just what I needed after a long day. I came home listened to the album on Bandcamp and loved it. I joined Bandcamp just to download this album. You guys represent everything that is right about music. The melodies, the lyrics, the instrumentation just blends into a warm fuzzy whirlpool of delight. Favorite track: When Cornered.

Stephen Harper This is beyond brilliant. Watch the video for Afrikaner Barista ib YouTube. Some would call this Trip Hop. It is in fact, Art Pop at its finest. Favorite Track: the entire record.

about

Thor Harris/SWANS: "This is not a record made by kids. No offense, kids."

NPR All Things Considered: "A headphone experience rich with ambitious sounds that are truly lived in."

Rolling Stone: "An easy record to fall in love with. One of the 15 best albums of the year."

Robert Christgau: "Grade A. Gentle tunes and surprising sounds contextualize lyrics that both parse and come at you from trick angles."

Noisey: "One of the most unique and engrossing albums of 2015."

Magnet Magazine: "Album of the year. Takes a sledgehammer to boundaries and orthodoxies. Recalls both Revolver and Stankonia..."

Pitchfork: "Delicacy and daring."

Bob Boilen NPR Music: "Quite brilliant."
