Deafheaven - Ordinary Corrupt Human Love
Released July 13, 2018
ANTI/Epitaph
I’ve never really understood why Deafheaven is so popular, especially with folks who don’t usually identify as metal fans. Glowing reviews from Pitchfork aside, how does a band that combines shoegaze with black metal of all things build up a massive cult following in the hipster community? I KNOW they’re legitimately really good and talented and all that, but once the screeching vocals hit, what could possibly be causing all the normies out there to keep listening? It honestly baffles me.
Anyway, this album is pretty great.
