Kurt Vile: Walkin’ on a Pretty Daze
Pretty daze indeed. I think I’ve listened to this album about a zillion times in the last month. The formula is so simple and yet I can’t come close to describing what it is about Vile’s easy-going, sun-dazed, hypnotic music that’s been treating me like a bag of potato chips that I just can’t put down. These songs don’t necessarily jam but somehow they stretch to 8 or 9 minutes without even trying, sonic bliss the whole way through. Perhaps I overuse the word “perfect” but this album is definitely worthy of that tag. Hopefully you’ve already been enjoying this one for a while like I have, but if not…

Junip: Junip
Junip is another band whose music is a deceptively simple formula that seems to unfold into a hypnotic, addictive sound. Hailing from Sweden, their music has a unique hum to it, like it was born from the coherent vibrations of a single acoustic guitar string. Around these vibrations rhythms and sparse vocals layer to create something quite unlike anything else out there. If you’ve been listening to these guys for the last couple of years, you know; if not… I bet you can’t eat just one.
