March '14 Forecast
The Record of the Month for May was The War on Drugs 'Lost in the Dream' via Secretly Canadian.
"Lost in the Dream continues down the Slave Ambient route of bridging polar-opposite strains of 1980s rock—namely, the tremulous haze of late-era Spacemen 3 and the sort of flyover-state Americana anthems used to sell pick-up trucks. The album is loaded with songs whose greatness is revealed slowly, where the simplest, most understated chord change can blow a track wide open and elevate it from simply pretty to absolutely devastating." - Pitchfork
Other artists that received heavy play on the Drift stereo over the month of May were; Real Estate, Eagulls, Metronomy, Jimi Goodwin, Coves, Tycho, Perfect Pussy, Cloud Nothings, Darkscorch Canticles and The Men.
