Magnetic Fields - Distortion

One of contemporary groups I enjoy the most is journalist Stephin Merritt´s Magnetic Fields, whose 2008´s release - Distortion - lives up to the name. On a fuzzy bed of sound re-Jesus-Mary-Chain, soaring melodies.

Um dos grupos atuais que curto mais é Magnetic Fields, onde o jornalista Stephen Merritt compõe, produz e toca quase tudo, gravando a maioria das faixas em apenas quatro canais. Neste lançamento de 2008, o nome do album é uma amostra do som com suas camadas de distorção à la Jesus & Mary Chain.
