"SPEAKERS GOING HAMMER!": The Albums: 2010.


10/Deerhunter - Halcyon Digest

Dream a little dream about the basement scene. Four boys lost in the production; the records, the instruments, and the tapes. Cavernous. Inside a room, inside a mind. A dreamworld where deep thoughts are in bloom and the air is clear. Clear enough to hear the melodies and the compositions, open and far reaching, rich in sentimentality and crate digging/rock and roll history. Longing, regrets, memories; Redemption thru song. “Walking free, come with me, far away, everyday” we’re asked towards the end of Side A. Accept the invitation, and get lost within the dream.
