Back at It: Album of the Week (5/13/2013)

Deerhunter
Monomania
Genre: Indie Rock


For their sixth studio album, Deerhunter (now basically just Bradford Cox) has finally become the band they promised they could be in those early flashes from Cryptograms. The ambient droning is gone, the babbling brook sound effects have been thrown out, Monomania is pure garage rock, with Deerhunter doing its best Strokes impersonation. The sound is heavier (even with the lo-fi recording method) and more accessible, more immediate. This the Deerhunter album we've been waiting for.

"Monomania"
