Live Review: LISTEN: Mac Demarco 'Brother'

12 March 2014 | 5:48 pm | Hannah Galvin

Listen to Mac Demarco's 'Brother', the second official single taken from his forthcoming record, Salad Days.

Montreal-based singer-songwriter MAC DEMARCO is just about ready to release his second full-length record, titled Salad Days. With each present day feeling larger than it's former, the man has aided our impatience on the release's lead-up by unleashing the album's second official single, 'Brother'.

Following Salad Days' sharp, headstrong first taste, 'Passing Out Pieces', the latest track escapes to a more dreamy and sensual zone; warmly resonating with the artist we previously met on his debut full-length album, 2. Coupling a jangly, wet guitar with another encompassing the tears of an emotional harmony, 'Brother' is injected with a delicately spoken interface. Pull the thin layer of solemn skin off of this initial response to unveil the sublime beauty buried not-too-deep within the world of the song.

As the blissful journey cruises on, twist yourself around the soft but demanding vocals of Demarco, before tripping into a psychedelic bottomless pit of resounding screeching, a consistent beat, aching guitars and the gentle exhalation of Mac's high vocal range that has become token within his charming, expansive catalogue.
