WILCO / Cousin
Novi Wilcov album producirala je Cate Le Bon.
Nakon punih pet godina njujorški DIIV imaju novi album. Slušamo ga zajedno ove srijede i subote od 15 sati.
If you drop a frog in a pot of boiling water, it will of course frantically try to clamber out. But if you place it gently in a pot of tepid water and turn the heat on low, the frog will sink into a tranquil stupor, exactly like one of us in a hot bath, and before long, with a smile on its face, it will unresistingly allow itself to be boiled to death.
We understand the metaphor to be one about a slow, sick, and overwhelmingly banal collapse of society under end-stage capitalism, the brutal realities we’ve maybe come to accept as normal. That’s the boiling water and we are the frogs. The album is more or less a collection of snapshots from various angles of our modern condition which we think highlights what this collapse looks like and, more particularly, what it feels like.

Nick Thorburn novim materijalom Islandsa ponovo na putu kojim se možda i trebao kretati. Vraća se ponovo na more. Blistavi pop albuma Return to the Sea i na ovom novom, uvrnutog omota i izdanom za vlastiti label Manqué, Ski Mask.

Nakon vrlo brzo rasprodanog prvijenca, Ryan Kennedy, ovaj put pojačan bendom proširuje zvučnu paletu te dalje radi na tom suptilnom gitarskom zvuku 80-ih. Prve dvije riječi koje padaju na pamet kao opis ovog djela su sanjivo i melodično. Ploča idealna za nostalgično prisjećanje na lijepo vrijeme kojemu smo svjedočili sve do prije par dana.
