Don’t you want summer to come very soon?
Mac DeMarco‘s album “Salad Days” released on April 1st, 2014, highlighting both the artist’s musical style and the overall feel of the album.
Mac DeMarco’s description of his music as “jizz jazz” adds a humorous touch to his work, although the term itself may be a bit cryptic.
It’s always interesting when artists use playful or unconventional labels to describe their sound.
The characterization of “Salad Days” as 11 tracks of mellow guitar pop-rock with a summery lazy feel provides a clear sense of the album’s atmosphere.
The imagery of wanting to sit on the porch, soak in the sun, and enjoy the music perfectly conveys the laid-back and relaxed vibe that Mac DeMarco often brings to his work.
Observing about the album missing some of the upbeatness found in previous works, such as “2,” adds a nuanced perspective.
It’s common for artists to evolve their sound over time, and on the specific tracks like “Passing Out The Pieces” and “Let Her Go” as closest to the upbeatness you’re looking for offers a helpful point of reference for listeners.
Noting Mac’s maturity in his lyrics indicates a deeper exploration of themes and emotions in “Salad Days.”
It’s always intriguing to witness artists’ growth and development, both musically and lyrically.
Definitely a great album to get.
