With a vision that is both sweeping in scope and intimately personal, Car Seat Headrest embodies the DIY ethos at its best. Car Seat Headrest began in 2010 in Will‚Äôs hometown of Leesburg, Virginia. Needing a place of solitude (and soundproofing) where he could record his often frantic vocals undisturbed, a 17-year old Will set up shop in the family car (hence the name). From this humble origin, he has since built up a catalogue of staggering breadth and depth. In the last five years there have been over ten releases under the Car Seat Headrest name, one of which exceeds two hours in length. While the songs of Car Seat Headrest are often long and complex, they are anchored by irresistible melodies and a piercing emotional directness. Dispersed across the globe, the CSH fanbase is the definition of a cult following: several thousand internet denizens who deeply connect with Will‚Äôs intensely honest and unfiltered approach to writing and performing. With the release of Teens of Style, expect that number to greatly expand.

Teens of Denial refracts Toledo’s particular, personal story of one difficult year through cultural touchstones such as the biography of Frank Sinatra, the evolution of the Me Generation as seen in Mad Men and elsewhere, plus elements of eastern and western theology. The whole thing flaunts a kind of conceptual, lyrical, and musical ambition that has been missing from far too much 21st-century music. Horns, keyboards, and elegant instrumental interludes set off art-garage moments; vivid vocal harmonies follow punk frenzy. The selfish captain of the capsized cruise liner in the Mediterranean in 2013 becomes a metaphor for struggles of the individual in society, as experienced by one hungover young man on the verge of adulthood. The album was produced by Steve Fisk (Nirvana, Beat Happening, Soundgarden) at his studio in Seattle, July-September 2015.

Legions of reverent listeners carve rituals out of it: sobbing over \"Famous Prophets,\" making out to \"Cute Thing,\" dancing their asses off as \"Bodys\" climbs higher, higher. The distortion hardly matters. You can hear him just fine. You can hear everything.

He never did complete the work. Not really. Never could square his grand ambitions against his mechanical limitations. Listen to his first attempt, recorded at nineteen on a cheap laptop, and you’ll hear what Brian Eno fondly calls “the sound of failure” - thrilling, extraordinary, and singularly compelling failure. Will’s first love, rendered in the vivid teenage viscera of stolen gin, bruised shins, and weird sex, was an event too momentous for the medium assigned to record it. Early next year, on the heels of the smashing success of Teens of Denial, Car Seat Headrest will release a new version of Twin Fantasy. “It was never a finished work,” Will says, “and it wasn’t until last year that I figured out how to finish it.” He has, now, the benefit of a bigger budget, a full band in fine form, and endless time to tinker. According to him, it took eight months of mixing just to get the drums right. But this is no shallow second take, sanitized in studio and scrubbed of feeling. This is the album he always wanted to make. It sounds the way he always wanted it to sound. It’s been hard, stepping into the shoes of his teenage self, walking back to painful places. There are lyrics he wouldn’t write again, an especially sad song he regards as an albatross. But even as he carries the weight of that younger, wounded Will, he moves forward. He grows. He revises, gently, the songs we love so much. In the album’s final moments, in those apologies to future me’s and you’s, there is more forgiveness than fury. This, Will says, is the most vital difference between the old and the new: he no longer sees his own story as a tragedy. “Maybe one of the best rock records of the century, and maybe one of the top 10 rock records ever made” - NPR’s 50 BEST ALBUMS OF THE YEAR OF 2016 (#8) TEENS OF DENIAL “Like Nirvana building quiet and explosiveness into the same space, Car Seat Headrest knows how to be intimate and epic at the same t\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \u003cul\u003e\n          \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e Car Seat Headrest\u003c\/li\u003e\n          \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Matador\u003c\/li\u003e\n          \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n          \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat detail:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2CD standard Digipak\u003c\/li\u003e\n          \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelease date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2018-02-16\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Car Seat Headrest","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62686284415057,"sku":"744861109228","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/201374737866.jpg?v=1789856743"}],"url":"https:\/\/apocalypsevinyl.com\/collections\/artist-car-seat-headrest.oembed","provider":"Apocalypse Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
