Deerhunter - Halcyon Digest

Something tells me you’ll find this near the top of a lot of end of year lists - something @seaninsound is already calling listopocalypse.  But Deerhunter’s fourth full LP will get up there not because it is an astounding album in its own right but because it marks the continued progression of a great band getting greater.  The sonic textures that you’ll hear on Halcyon Digest are the consolidation of all their previous efforts and Bradford Cox’s solo work (as Atlas Sound) whilst the songs themselves retain a distinctive, swirling mesh of guitars where the momentum builds throughout each song.  Momentum is an apt concept that can be applied throughout this album and Deerhunter’s career with this being a notable addition to a growing arsenal.
