| The Danforths
The Danforths are not only a high-five between three incredible musicians, but also an ethereal holy trinity that is the one real Chris Danforth. Pluralizing his name and using it as the nom de plume for his projects alludes to the kind of musical schizophrenia from which Danforth suffers. His head is filled with so many sounds, structures and ideas that he is forced to allow each voice to have its turn at the helm. Look Out for the Wolves is the group’s second full-length and, just like their first, they twist genres, moving along with a wide musical vocabulary that dances from hook to drone and back again. Somewhere between OMD and Faust, this album finds Danforth honing his perfectly amalgamated quirk-pop to a more mature conclusion. Combining found sounds, field recordings, synth and guitar-led songs, he crafts lo-fi psych pop that Ink 19 called “an orchestral, angular, epic take on panoramic sunshine music like some long-lost Elephant 6 track calling in from the twilight zone.”
