Mac DeMarco - Salad Days LP Vinyl Record

Written and recorded around a relentless tour schedule (including his much loved Meredith Festival & sold out sideshow appearances), "Salad Days" gives the listener a very personal insight into what it's all about to be Mac amidst the craziness of a rising career in a very public format. The lead single, 'Passing Out Pieces', set to huge overdriven organ chords, contains lines like "…never been reluctant to share, passing out pieces of me..." Clearly, this isn't the same record that breezily gave us 'Dreamin', and 'Ode to Viceroy' but the result of what comes from their success. 'Chamber of Reflection', a track featuring icy synth stabs and soulful crooning, wouldn't be out of place on a fantasy Shuggie Otis and Prince collaboration. Standout tracks like these show Mac's widening sound, whether insights into future directions or even just welcome one-off forays into new territory.

Still, “Salad Days" is musically, lyrically and melodically good old Mac DeMarco, through and through. The same crisp John Lennon / Phil Spector era homegrown lush production that could have walked out of Geoff Emerick's mixing board in 1972, but with that peculiar Mac touch. 'Brother', a complete future classic, is Mac at his most soulful and easygoing but with that distinct weirdness and bite that can only come from Mr. DeMarco. 'Treat Her Better' is rife with "Mac-isms," heavily chorused slinky lead guitar, swooning vocal melodies, effortless chords that come along only after years of effort, and the other elements seriously lacking in independent music: sentiment and heartfelt sincerity.

A masterpeice in indie rock, be sure to add this classic to your collection today!
