Teens Of Denial Car Seat Headrest SKU: OLE10911 Barcode: 744861109105 19.00 £19.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Matador Released Date: 11th July 2016 Buying Format: 2LP Gatefold Sleeve Includes Download Code Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info Matador Records announce the release of Car Seat Headrest’s ‘Teens Of Denial’, the thirteenth album in Car Seat Headrest’s (aka 23-year-old Will Toledo) oeuvre, second on Matador and first to be recorded in a proper studio with a full band and producer (Steve Fisk). On ‘Teens Of Denial’, Toledo moves from bedroom pop to something approaching classic-rock grandeur and huge (if detailed and personal) narrative ambitions, with nods to The Cars, Pavement, Jonathan Richman, Wire and William Onyeabor. · By turns tender and caustic, empathetic and solipsistic, literary and vernacular, profound and profane, self-loathing and self-aggrandizing, he conjures a specifically 21st Century mindset, a product of information overload, the loneliness it can foster and the escape music can provide. ‘Fill In The Blank’, the mission statement of the album, kicks things off – it’s a fist-pumping anthem about feeling lousy in an ill-defined way, the fear of settling into a routine of futility and not wanting to deal with it. Although it’s oddly joyful sounding, Toledo considers it the introduction to his angriest record yet. In that vein, ‘Vincent’, ‘Hippie Powers’ and ‘Connect The Dots’ are about both fighting to hold your place in the crowd and to hold your drink, as well as DIY college house shows and having no one to dance with, respectively. Initially similar, ‘Drunk Drivers/Killer Whales’ veers off in surprising directions, each piece flush with catchy, irony-free hooks. At the heart of the album sits the 11:32 ‘Ballad Of The Costa Concordia’, which has more musical ideas than most whole albums (and at that length, it uses them all). Horns, keyboards, and elegant instrumental interludes set off art-garage moments; vivid vocal harmonies follow punk frenzy. The selfish captain of the capsized cruise liner in the Mediterranean in 2013 becomes a metaphor for struggles of the individual in society, as experienced by one hungover young man on the verge of adulthood. ‘Teens Of Denial’ refracts Toledo’s particular, personal story of one difficult year through cultural touchstones such as the biography of Frank Sinatra, the evolution of the Me Generation as seen in ‘Mad Men’ and elsewhere, plus elements of Eastern and Western theology. The whole thing flaunts a kind of conceptual, lyrical and musical ambition that has been missing from far too much 21st Century music. Double LP format includes digital download code.
