Dirty Projectors - 'About to Die'

Dirty ProjectorsAbout to DieDomino RecordsOn the new EP About to Die, the Dirty Projectors range from their usual complexity to surprising simplicity. They prove that they can contain their trademark elements of the extreme scale of Dave Longstreth’s voice, simple guitar, and instrumentals done with their voices and hands. This album conversely contains vocals solely backed by clapping, and composite layers that the Dirty Projectors are known masters of. Each song is rooted in the eccentric vocals of Dave Longstreth, which plays a stronger role in this EP than their last few albums. —Lauren Levitt[soundcloud url="http://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/77454894" params="" width=" 100%" height="166" iframe="true" /]
