CONSEQUENCE OF SOUND
Certainly now hes become an unofficial leader of the indies, and if you reflect you can hear it in a Danger Mouse produced rock album, or the dreamy melodies of cross over bands like The Shins. Thanks to what started on Mellow Gold, theres a little Beck everywhere you look. […]
