On August 21st, psychedelic pop-freak folk darlings Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti released Mature Themes, the follow-up to their 2010 debut album, Before Today.
Unlike its predecessor, the songwriting process for the new album gave Pink and his band time to develop things without dealing with a time crunch. “We had time to develop things without the clock rolling,” Pink recently told Rolling Stone. “It’d been about five years since I had an opportunity to sit down and develop things, which is something that has been bothering me. That’s the opportunity I got with this record.”
Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti will stop at the 9:30 Club this Thursday, September 13th. Also taking the stage that evening will be BODYGUARD and Moon Diagrams.
