Man Man - Life Fantastic (May 10)
Listen to new track "Knuckle Down" on Pitchfork.com: Pitchfork: Man Man Announce New Album
Quote:
On May 10, Anti- will release Life Fantastic, the new album from Philly spaz kings Man Man. It's the band's first album since 2008's Rabbit Habits. Bright Eyes/Monsters of Folk member Mike Mogis serves as producer, and fellow Bright Eyes member Nate Walcott contributes string arrangements. That image of a homemade critter up above is the cover art. Also above, you can stream album opener "Knuckle Down", and we've got the album's tracklist below.
In a press release, frontman Honus Honus says, "The songs were fully-formed entities by the time we got to Mike's studio, but he was there to say things like, "OK, that's a bit too much.' He was able to help us carve the beauty out of the chaos we brought. It wasn't whittling down the points; it was sharpening them so they'd puncture even deeper."
