Car Seat Headrest: Teens Of Denial Vinyl 2LP

by Turntable Lab

$29.95

<p><em>Car Seat Headrest's first proper studio album for Matador. </em>The album comes after 12 previous releases (all self-released, not on label, or compilations of sorts), so I think it's safe to say <em>Teens Of Denial</em> has been a long time coming. For the uninitiated, <strong>Car Seat Headrest</strong> is a long running project by Seattle singer/songwriter <strong>Will Toledo</strong>. What started in 2010 as a solo bedroom project, err.. car seat project (Will would actually record vocals in his family's car), is now a full-on band. Not to worry though, the growth and success hasn't detracted from the intimate, DIY aesthetic of the music. If anything it is even more personal and self-aware as ever. Take a listen on "Drugs With Friends," "Fill In The Blank," the Cars-esque "Not what I Needed," "Cosmic Hero," and "1937 State Park."
