I loved Spiderman Of The Rings, so it would be hard to top that album for me. I was crazy excited to listen to the new album after watching the In the Studio videos on Pitchfork.
Dan Deacon, as you can see, brings up my favorite question of the 00′s… Hipster or Retard?
Although I like the new album and it has some a new sounds, in the end it really feels the exact same as Spiderman Of The Rings. Hopefully on his next album Dan will be able to keep his integrity but come up with a new sound in the same way M83 broke out of their own mould with Saturdays=Youth.
I have to warn you… Pitchfork’s “In the Studio” video might set your expectations too high. So listen to the album first. Despite what you think about the album, in the end you have to respect the genius that went into it. Just watch this player piano video and you will know exactly what I’m talking about.
Here is one of my favorite songs from the album Woof Woof

Snookered is real good too it’s just a bit too long for a blog.
In the end, it’s good. So go get it!
You can listen to the entire album now on NPR.
