Drift by The Men, released 02 March 2018 1. Maybe I'm Crazy 2. When I Held You in My Arms 3. Secret Light 4. Rose on Top of the World 5. So High 6. Killed Someone 7. Sleep 8. Final Prayer 9. Come to Me Drift is the seventh full-length by NYC rock polymaths The Men. The band’s last album, the self-released Devil Music, was the sound of a band who had been through hell hitting reset and looking to their roots to rediscover themselves. On Drift, The Men return to their longtime label Sacred Bones Records and explore the openness that Devil Music helped them find. Includes unlimited streaming via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more. Purchasable with gift card. LP. Record/Vinyl + Digital Album.
Only two years elapsed between the Men ’s 2014 album, Tomorrow’s Hits, and its follow-up, Devil Music, but it felt like 10. Up to that point, the Brooklyn band had maintained a furious rate of both output and evolution. The five-album stretch from 2010’s Immaculada to Tomorrow’s Hits is right up there with Sonic Youth ’s 1980s run in terms of capturing a primordial punk band’s incremental transformation into an artful, melodically sophisticated rock juggernaut. And so on Drift, the Men frolic in the greener grass that lies on the other side. Trending Now. The One Song Holly Herndon Wishes She Wrote.
The Men are back with new music. The New York band has announced their first new album since 2016′s self-released Devil Music, and their first for Sacred Bones since 2014′s Tomorrow’s Hits. The band will release Drift on March 2, which a press release says largely avoids prominent use of electric guitars, save for a few notable exceptions. There are, however, lots of synths, piano, strings, saxophone, tape loops and harmonica. The first track to be released from the album is Maybe I’m Crazy, which you can stream below.
