Description
Fading Frontier is the long awaited seventh album from Atlanta quartet Deerhunter. The record was made by founding members Bradford Cox, Lockett Pundt and Moses Archuleta and bassist Josh McKay. Written in their hometown, production duties were shared by the band and Ben H. Allen III, continuing a collaboration that began with 2010s Halcyon Digest.
Following the death-rattle garage catharsis of 2013s Monomania, the group has shifted towards something strikingly balanced, focused on melody and texture. The songs are brighter; if not in content then in the albums production. Starkness plays against clutter in what is the bands most complex yet accessible work to date.
Fading Frontier shows that a decade in, Deerhunter have lost none of their intensity. As the group mature, so they have grown into the most consistent purveyors of art-rock of their generation.
Special LP pressing on 180g vinyl with laser-cut sleeve.
