4AD Releases Deerhunter's Latest LP
Monomania
After a brief
hiatus following the success of third album Halcyon Digest, during which
time Bradford Cox and Lockett Pundt released their own albums as Atlas Sound
and Lotus Plaza respectively, a new Deerhunter line-up (with additions of
bassist Josh Mckay and guitarist Frankie Broyles) reconvened in January 2013 at
Rare Book Studio in Brooklyn, New York.
Produced by Nicholas Vernhes and
Bradford Cox and recorded in the dead of night, Deerhunter’s new long player Monomania will
be released on 7th May. Monomania finds the group recalling its scrappy
punk aesthetic; a perfect nocturnal garage rock album full of the layered and
hazy vintage guitar sounds that define them.
