Caribou - Suddenly - VINYL LP
About this product
In 2014, Dan Snaith aka Caribou released Our Love to overwhelming critical acclaim. Caribou returns now with his new studio album Suddenly, a warm, untamable, and constantly surprising record about family and the changes we go through as those relationships evolve. Most prominently, Suddenly refers to the moments of dramatic and unexpected change that occur at points in any life and within any family-universal themes that can catch you off guard and change your life in a heartbeat. Those dramatic moments are part of a slower process. These moments rear their heads, for good or bad, during the everyday flow of life. There's a tension between those sudden things which blindside you and the more glacial, gradual day-to-day changes, he observes. We are so caught up in the immediate-the details that require our attention every day-that we can be blind to the bigger forces shaping us. That's why so often when something drastic happens suddenly, it catalyzes all sorts of changes in our lives. Our perspective shifts. Suddenly is in the music, too. This is the most surprising and unpredictable Caribou album to date. Though it retains the trademark Caribou warmth and technicolor, this album is littered with swerves and left turns. I wanted to balance the familiar-the sound that people associate with my music-against these moments of surprise, Snaith says. As his passion and joy in music-making remains as fresh as ever, Suddenly is the purest example of this yet. Album Tracks 1. Sister 2. You and I 3. Sunny's Time 4. New Jade 5. Home 6. Lime 7. Never Come Back 8. Filtered Grand Piano 9. Like I Loved You 10. Magpie 11. Ravi 12. Cloud Song

You reach a point in life where the question of how to stay at the top of your game looms; the only real solution being, you change the game. Our Love, the new album from Caribou, is the sound of Dan Snaith doing just that. OUR LOVE is formed around a mixture of digital pop production, hip hop-inspired beats, muted house basslines, and a love of shuffling garage that can be traced all the way back to the time of Start Breaking My Heart ? all of which are, of course, filtered through Dan's own unique perspective. Album Tracks 1. Can't Do Without You 2. Silver 3. All I Ever Need 4. Our Love 5. Dive 6. Second Chance 7. Julia Brightly 8. Mars 9. Back Home 10. Your Love Will Set You Free
Dan Snaith, under the guise of Caribou (formerly Manitoba), has been producing critically-acclaimed albums for years now, each an impressive development on the previous one. For his Merge debut, he marries the kaleidoscopic grandeur he's known for with pop melodies and harmonies crammed densely together. Andorra is so vividly three-dimensional, it's hard to believe it was performed and recorded entirely by Snaith at home, save for vocal and songwriting contributions by friend/tour mate Junior Boys' Jeremy Greenspan on one track. To make something so beautiful and vast from surroundings so constrained is surely Caribou's unique alchemy. Album Tracks 1. Melody Day 2. Sandy 3. After Hours 4. She's the One 5. Desiree 6. Eli 7. Sundialing 8. Irene 9. Niobe
Upon first listen, two things about Honey are immediately clear First, it is an entirely new kind of Caribou record. Second, in being an entirely new kind of Caribou record, it is in keeping with Dan Snaith's discography, each new album marked by radical thematic and sonic shifts. Honey is not a departure from the Caribou we've known up to this point but rather the product of a lifetime spent listening to and crafting immaculate pop music. After two intensely personal Caribou albums (Suddenly and the Grammy-nominated Our Love), Snaith now pulls himself away a little in search of music that isn't about any one person and is relatable to everybody. It also brings Snaith's two personas, Caribou and Daphni, closer together than ever before. On Honey, Snaith fuses their strengths into a record that grabs you and moves you like Daphni before it uplifts you like Caribou. Huge dancefloor tracks twinkle and surprise in a way only Snaith's productions can, with a freshness that defines an artist who is too excited by music-making to ever truly settle into any one sound. Album Tracks 1. Broke My Heart 2. Honey 3. Volume 4. Do Without You 5. Come Find Me 6. August 7. Dear Life 8. Over Now 9. Campfire 10. Climbing 11. Only You 12. Got to Change
