New Beach House & Magnetic Fields



On their new album devotion (due early february on car-park records), beach house stink to the same vibes of their self titled debut, specifically channeling the stand out track master of none (there is also a pretty wicked daniel johnston cover snuck in). I'm really feeling this album and the hand claps (or whatever those are) on this track.

You can also download the first single Gila on any of the other 1000 blogs that posted about it.

The Magnetic Field's Steven Merritt stays pretty literal on all of distortion's tracks with a thick level of jesus and mary chain feedback worship. He doesn't even start singing till track three, but when he does it gets pretty awesome. Check it out.
