Mac DeMarco has announced the release of his highly anticipated second full-length LP Salad Days, the follow up to Mac DeMarco 2, who’s sound created soulful growls and croons set against some lilting guitar made DeMarco a household name.
Written and recorded whilst touring, the songs on the new album displays Mac’s widening sound with icy synth stabs in “Chamber of Reflection” and overdriven organ chords in the lead single “Passing out Pieces”.
Salad Days will be released April 1, 2014 (via Captured Tracks). In the mean time, you can pre-order the album here or have a listen to the album’s first single “Passing Out Pieces” and get a taste of that familiar easygoing weirdness that can only come from DeMarco.
