2010 release from the American Indie outfit led by Kevin Barnes. Teaming up with Grammy nominated producer Jon Brion (Kanye West, Fiona Apple), Barnes traveled to famed Ocean Way Recording (Michael Jackson, Ray Charles, Frank Sinatra) to record False Priest, his self professed masterpiece. As discussed in features in Rolling Stone, SPIN, Under the Radar and Pitchfork, False Priest is speaker, rattling heavy on the low end and features appearances by Janelle Monáe and Solange Knowles (Beyoncé’s sister). The album also marks the return of organic instruments as live drums, strings and pianos eschew the midi sounds and sequencers of previous albums.
