Ariel Pinks Haunted Graffiti
Outre pop pranksters Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti blends Lite FM and warped pop into something beautiful and confusing, yet highly addictive. A cult figure from the LA underground for the past decade, Ariel Pink was “discovered” by Animal Collective and revered for his incredible lo-fi home recordings. One of the great albums of last year, Before Today is a beguiling mix of glam rock, West Coast funk and Merseybeat harmonies with a high-production sheen. The sound of Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti is as sublime as it is surreal; loaded with hazy nostalgia and a fiercely experimental pop palette. For such a unique act, Haunted Graffiti manage to weave such a beguiling range of influences into their music.
