Bought the Maraqopa Deluxe package. I’m on my second listen of the download.
Don’t quite know what to say, but I do know this - I love it! There are a lot of different elements to it, but it gels well (in my opinion).
Favorite tracks so far are Working Titles, Maraqopa, Reel to Reel, So On Nevada, and Museum of Flight.
I can’t wait to see these live. I wonder if there will be a band for this tour? Every time I’ve seen Damien, he’s been solo, which is awesome, but it sounds like this album begs for some accompaniment when performed live.
Maraqopa phonebooth (425) 234-7859
This number has been set up for you to call anytime of the day. The distorted sound of a piano will play, and then you leave a message. Since this is a voice mail service, no human will answer.
You can preview the first release (and see the cover artwork from the new album) over on stereogum.com.
