New Attitude (MP3)
In between a massive national tour in support of The Getty Address and relocation to Brooklyn, chief Dirty Projector Dave Longstreth wrote an EP's worth of crazy new songs. Playing the electric counterpoint to The Getty Address, New Attitude is a refreshingly pared-down disc: simple, beautiful, and focused. It is dominated by the sound of chiming microtonal guitars, sub-bass dragon breaths, a sextet of cellos and double-basses, and most of all, Longstreth's singing, which has never been so varied or so wonderfully weird.
Few musicians have been called "genius" by Phil Elverum (Mount Eerie) and inspired Prefuse 73 to declare that he is "quitting music." Few musicians can count Devendra Banhart and Alan Pierson, conductor of New Music collective Alarm Will Sound, among their admirers.
