Hear me out: Deerhunter - 'Why Hasn't Everything Already Disappeared?'
Share
"Unpredictability is a rare and rather valuable commodity in a world of media-trained personalities and music dictated by the metrics of streaming services, and it’s something 'Why Hasn’t Everything Already Disappeared?' has in abundance. Far less aesthetically cohesive than 'Monomania' or 'Fading Frontier', it never settles, skipping without warning from harpsichord-bedecked psych-pop to icy Tubeway Army-ish synth instrumentals, from elegiac alt-rock ballads to stuff that sounds like a lo-fi take on 80s Japanese environmental music, its disparate strands just about held together by Cox’s drawling voice and the hazy quality of the production" - Guardian.
