Full of “gleaming, raging alt-rock grandeur” dubbed “a triumph” by Pitchfork, this remastered version, previously only available physically as a Record Store Day exclusive, will now be available on all digital services on November 2nd and on vinyl on November 9th. Car Seat Headrest kicks off a run of headline tour dates in February 2019, with a stop at MASS MoCA February 15.

Car Seat Headrest Slipper Albumet "Twin Fantasy"
Foto: Video still 09-01-2018 17:51 CET CAR SEAT HEADREST SLIPPER ALBUMET "TWIN FANTASY" CAR SEAT HEADREST – "TWIN FANTASY" –NY VERSJON AV ALBUMET UTE 16. FEBRUAR SE MUSIKKVIDEO TIL "NERVOUS YOUNG INHUMANS" Fans av Car Seat Headrest, nye som gamle, vil glede seg over å høre at Will Toledo sitt Bandcamp-mesterverk "Twin Fantasy" fra 2011 har blitt gjenskapt og spilt inn på nytt. Albumet slippes 16. februar via Matador Records. I dag deler Toledo sporet "Nervous Young Inhumans" med en tilhørende musikkvideo. Den er en frenetisk, storslagen split-screen video, Toledos visjon når han nå prøver seg som regissør for første gang. SE MUSIKKVIDEOEN TIL "NERVOUS YOUNG INHUMANS" HER HØR "NERVOUS YOUNG INHUMANS" HER Will Toledo har alltid visst at han kom til å vende tilbake til "Twin Fantasy". Albumet ble aldri helt ferdig. Den første versjonen ble spilt inn da Toledo var 19 år, på en billig laptop, og handler om Wills første kjærlighet, en så monumental hendelse i hans liv at den ikke helt lot seg spille inn slik han ønsket. Likevel er "Twin Fantasy" en stor favoritt blant Car Seat Headrest -fans, elsket for sin ærlighet og sin amatørmessige snodighet. "It was never a finished work", forteller Toledo,"and it wasn't until last year that I figured out how to finish it." Nå nyter han fordelene av et større budsjett, et fulltallig band i storform, og all tid i verden til å fikse og trikse. I følge ham selv, tok det hele åtte måneder med miksing bare for å få trommene til å låte riktig.

Car Seat Headrest Teens of Denial Full Album Download
car seat headrest teens of denial full album download Car Seat Headrest Conquer Graduation Jitters With New Album ‘Teens of Denial’ The Seattle-based lo-fi dynamo takes us through the genesis of his first studio record. Will Toledo, the main brain behind Car Seat Headrest, is glad that it’s not 2013 anymore. A few years ago, the bedroom-pop luminary was in a “purgatorial” state as he prepared to graduate from Virginia’s College of William & Mary, where many of his friends from the class ahead had left to figure out post-college life. Toledo, a Virginia native, was afraid that he wouldn’t. “I knew there wasn’t an office job I wanted to jump into or anything, or a career, other than music,” the 23-year-old tells SPIN over the phone from his current home of Seattle. “That’s hard to prepare for when you’re graduating college.” It was during this liminal period when Toledo wrote the bulk of his forthcoming record, Teens of Denial , which arrives May 20 via Matador and follows last year’s similarly named compilation record, Teens of Style . Before his signing with the New York- and London-based label, though, Toledo had been writing a series of melancholic, self-deprecating songs as Car Seat Headrest ever since his transition from high school to college in 2010. Over time, they amounted to 11 albums on Bandcamp. Ironically, while writing what would become his first label-released full-length, Toledo was dissatisfied with his progress. “[Writing Teens of Denial ] was actually one of the longest processes I’ve had of writing an album,” he says.

Indie Mixtape
:: View email as a web page :: Long before we were all forced into it, Fiona Apple turned social distancing into an art form. For the better of the early 21st century, the masterful 42-year-old singer-songwriter has sequestered herself away from the pop mainstream she once uncomfortably ruled. In the past 20 years, she’s only put out three albums — including her latest, Fetch The Bolt Cutters — and the gap between releases has grown longer with each LP. That she retreated to her home in Venice Beach was not a surprise — at the height of her early fame, she famously stared down the vacuous hordes at the MTV Video Music Awards and declared that “this world is bullshit.” This clearly was not a person who longed for the red carpet. What is surprising, however, is how this separation from the larger culture hasn’t diluted her skills as an artist or perceptive observer of human nature. Read the Uproxx review of her latest masterwork here. -- Steven Hyden, Uproxx Cultural Critic and author of This Isn't Happening: Radiohead's "Kid A" and the Beginning Of The 21st Century Geoff Rickly is here to help you soundtrack any mood in our new show Making A Mixtape. Hit the banner above to watch Rickly and some special guests curate a short playlist to fit a specific moment or experience during the day, whether that be “moody,” “energy,” or “details.” OPENING TRACKS CAR SEAT HEADREST Next week Will Toledo and company will release one of the most anticipated indie albums of 2020, Making A Door Less Open.

PRESSEMITTEILUNG 09.01.2018 Car Seat Headrest Im Mai Zu Gast In
FKP Scorpio Konzertproduktionen GmbH Große Elbstr. 277 a ∙ 22767 Hamburg Tel. (040) 853 88 888 ∙ www.fkpscorpio.com PRESSEMITTEILUNG 09.01.2018 Car Seat Headrest im Mai zu Gast in Deutschland In den neuen Zeiten von Online Vertrieb und der Eigenverantwortung von veröffentlichter Musik hat die ursprünglich aus den frühen 90er-Jahren stammende DYI-Attitüde eine neue Intensität und Dringlichkeit erhalten. Viele Musiker gehen ihren ganz eigenen Weg, nehmen ihre Musik ohne große Produktionen auf und präsentieren sie ihren Fans ohne jedes Zutun der arrivierten Plattenfirmen über entsprechende Web Pages. Einer der umtriebigsten Musiker in diesem Bereich ist der ursprünglich aus Virginia stammende und nun in Seattle lebende Musiker Will Toledo. Im Alter von gerade einmal 18 Jahren begann er, regelmäßig ganze Alben in bestem LoFi-Sound auf die eigene Bandcamp-Seite hochzuladen – die ersten vier Alben entstanden sogar in einem atemberaubenden Zeitraum von nur dreieinhalb Monaten. 2011 – damals war Will Toledo gerade 19 Jahre alt geworden – nahm er das sechste Album seines Projektes auf mit dem Titel „Twin Fantasy“. Es war die Platte, mit der Car Seat Headrest ein weltweites Kult-Gefolge finden konnten: Zu schön, schaurig, aber auch intim berührend arbeitete sich Toledo an einer jüngst verflossenen Beziehung ab. Alles nach wie vor im besten LoFi-Klang – so nannte er sein Projekt nur deshalb Car Seat Headrest, weil er die meisten Gesangsaufnahmen auf dem Rücksitz seines Kleinwagens aufgenommen hatte. Über die Jahre veränderte sich die Formation und ihre Idee weiter. Aus dem Ein-Mann-Projekt wurde eine siebenköpfige Band, 2015 unterschrieben sie ihren ersten Plattenvertrag und brachten mit „Teens of Style“ ihr erstes offizielles, insgesamt bereits neuntes Album heraus, 2016 gefolgt von „Teens of Denial“.

Visionary artist Frank Ocean makes his Finnish debut with a live show at Flow Festival in Helsinki. Ocean is the festival's most requested artist of recent years. Frank Ocean is one of the most celebrated and critically acclaimed artists of his era. The enigmatic artist came back from a four-year musical hiatus last year, when he released the album Endless via livestream on his website and just one day later followed it up with the album Blonde. The critically acclaimed album went to number one in the album charts in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Norway, Denmark, Belgium and New Zealand. The two records follow his breakout albums: Channel Orange and the Nostalgia Ultra mixtape. Blonde features guest performances by the likes of Beyoncé, Kendrick Lamar, André 3000 and James Blake, with production credits for Ocean himself, as well as Pharrell Williams, Tyler The Creator and Jamie xx, among others. It was picked as album of the year in 2016 by a number of medias, including Time magazine, with Rolling Stone stating that the record “perfects avant-garde soul” and The Guardian calling it one of the “most intriguing and contrary records ever made.” Alt-country superstar and rock cult favorite Ryan Adams returns to Finland, putting an end to a 15-year wait by fans.
