The Magnetic Fields' Realism
Today, The Magnetic Fields released their ninth album Realism. "Autuer" Stephin Merrit said, "the way we were thinking about it initially was as an opposite to Distortion - distortion meaning lie." With no drums and crystal clear recording, it is a stark contrast to their fuzzy 2008 album. The songs are more reminiscent of 69 Love Songs. They evoke feelings of nostalgia, wit, and charm. It is definitely going to be a must-have in 2010.
Watch Stephin Merritt and Claudia Gonson talk about the album.
"You Must Be Out of Your Mind", "We Are Having a Hootenanny", and "Everything Is One Big Christmas Tree" from Realism and "I Don't Want to Get Over You" from 69 Love Songs.
