The Syndicate

Enrique wrote:This one is new to me if you count November last year as new, but got dam, Car Seat Headrest (yes ik they really are running out of band names) is fucking marvelous. He's a lo-fi rock artist that started recording music in his car, hence the name of the band, and progressively taught himself to make fuckin' amazing music. This is my favorite song from Twin Fantasy (2011).



Last year he got signed to Matador Records and released an album called Teens of Style, which is just a bunch of better produced remakes of old songs pretty much. This spring he's coming out with his first album of original material since he got signed, called Teens of Denial, and I caaaaan't waaaaiiiiit. I think this dude has the potential to become a cult/indie legend, the sort of artist hipsters in the 2030s are gonna idolize. The new album looks like it's gonna have a much cleaner sound, which might take a bit to get used to, but the songs out so far are pretty damn good. This is his latest.



Thanks ekeknat so much for making me listen to him!
