Hey kids, Blaine here. Incase you've been living in a trash can for the past week, you might not know that Dan Deacon and Carpark Records were gracious enough to drop Dan Deacon's new album Bromst into stores everywhere yesterday. If you don't know who the hell he is, it is safe to define this man as one of the current figureheads of music in the greater Baltimore, MD area. After releasing his first commercially known album Spiderman of the Rings, Dan Deacon blewww the minds of college kids and [mustache fancied] hipsters everywhere. With Deacon's high energy/electronic sound, it is almost impossible to not be sucked into his world and wonder, "Why the hell do I like this sooo much?" I assure you, it's not because of the 32 oz. of alcohol you just injested. It is simply due to the fact that this hipster is no cliche hipster at all, but in fact a man who graduated with a degree in Sound Engineering and knows much about which melodies sooth the ears and which melodies make you want to unload that 32 oz. you killed. [This knowledge coming from a fairly obese/balding/Steve Urkel spectacles wearing man.]
I would say Bromst is promising to be highly recognized for the time it took to be produced and the layering that went into it as well. There are so many new [analog] instruments included on this album, such as glockenspiel, marimba, and live drums. Deacon plans to tour with a 15 man band, as well as other guests along the way, this year and will continue to cast his dancing spell across the entire North American region. When asked the reason for naming the album Bromst, Deacon answered "It's like when a dragon wakes up and it's not horny but it knows it could easily become horny."
On a side note: In an interview, Dan Deacon also admitted to plans of hosting a dance party in an electric powered cave outside of Austin, TX sometime later this year.
