Here's the first taste from Akron/Family's record Sub Verses‚ out April 30th on Dead Oceans. In typical Akron/Family fashion‚ it's beautifully jarring and psychedelic. And it sounds massive.
But within that uniquely Akron/Family massiveness‚ they tend to give you some familiarity -- on "No-Room" you get a little classic rock vibe that rings throughout the unexpected twists and turns. I can almost smell my 7th grade bedroom‚ lying there with my headphones on and getting fully immersed into The Doors or something. Ahh… anyway‚ Pitchfork has the scoop on the new record - check it out.
