Song of the Week

by ingersll

Bradford Cox is at it again. On May 18th, Deerhunter’s Rainwater Cassette Exchange EP will be released digitally on Kranky Records. Cox is also staying busy  by performing and writing songs with his other group, Atlas Sound. With summer slowly approaching, this song will surely fill in that dreamy tropical lo-fi rock spot you have been waiting for.
