I got a chance to check out Atlas Sound and Neon Indian last week at NYU's E&L auditorium, which was quite the treat. Neon Indian was fun and dancey, Atlas Sound was a little more transcendent and impressive. You can check out my full review of the show here if you're interested (the pictures below are from that site as well).
I gotta admit, I slept a bit on Atlas Sound last year - I loved "Walkabout," but never really got around to listening to the full album more than a couple times. Since the show, though, Logos has been in heavy rotation around these parts. It's an understated album - not really what you'd expect from the frontman of Deerhunter - but it's really quite beautiful. "Walkabout" still is a standout track, but the rest of the album is pretty damn solid.
It's always cool to go to a show and have an album take on a new place in your ears post-concert. That's exactly what happened with this disc, and I'm psyched about it. Long story short, go see live music.
