"Walkabout" isn't the best track on Atlas Sound's second proper full-length Logos, but it is the song that features a member of Animal Collective, which is likely why it got out there first. Truth is, it's kind of album's curve ball moment. Even though its more skeletal than some of Logos (see, for instance, the show-stopping "Quick Canal"), the spaciously intimate "Attic Lights" nails the collection's vibe better and feels more representative of its overall aesthetic. Cox offered some background on the song in his initial Logos statement:Sasha Vine [of Sian Alice Group] provided a double-tracked improvised violin part to "Attic Lights" which was recorded backstage at a Deerhunter/Sian Alice Group show in Brighton. It might be my favorite moment of the album. I played it for some younger friends of mine. They cringed. They wanted more songs like "Walkabout." Something with a big beat. I told them when they get older they will appreciate things like harmonicas and violins...And Fleetwood Mac covers. Take a listen to "Attic Lights":Continue reading New Atlas Sound - "Attic Lights"...

Lindsey Buckingham's (great) "Walk A Thin Line" from the (great) Tusk LP is such a pretty and pleading track, relying on LB's falsetto and guitar triads, flat-smacked drum sounds, and backing vocals that "oh-wa-oh-wa" upfront and get increasingly gauzy/complex as the song progresses to strike an emotional chord. Bradford Cox, for his part, has r...

We've been spending plenty of quality time with Atlas Sound's Logos. Looks like longstanding electro-lined UK dream-pop duo will be doing so, too Atlas Sound and Broadcast begin a month-long North American trek in mid October. (For anyone who pays attention to Cox & Co's blog, this pairing shouldn't be a surprise.) It's Broadcast's first tou...

When Bradford Cox's server got hacked, a version of the unreleased Atlas Sound LP Logos spread all over the web. As he told us recently, that was just a draft; the real LP is a far cry from Let The Blind..., less laptop/bedroom pop, more collaborative, more global. That previous LP recalled some of the spirit if not the sound of Panda Bear's stu...

Outside of all those free downloads and EPs, Atlas Sound is following Let the Blind Lead Those Who Can See But Cannot Feel with the second proper full-length Logos. According to a note from Cox written on July 4th, the 11-track collection's more in the spirit of Microcastle than his past Atlas Sound work.My last album was a bedroom laptop type t...
