Villagers: Darling Arithmetic
Title: Darling Arithmetic
Artist: Villagers
Label: Domino
Product Type: VINYL LP
UPC: 887828033010
Genre: Rock
Darling Arithmetic is the third album from Villagers’ Conor O’ Brien. His 2010 debut Becoming A Jackal and {Awayland} his 2013 release – both Mercury Prize-nominated, while the latter won Ireland’s Choice Prize – were detailed, multi-faceted affairs, so Darling Arithmetic is a brave and committed new step forward. O’Brien plays every instrument on these exquisite, melodic songs in a beautifully sparse, spacious, intimate, acoustic-leaning fashion, as well as recording and mixing it himself at home, revealing a single-minded artist at the peak of his already considerable songwriting powers.
Tracks:
1.1 Courage
1.2 Everything I Am Is Yours
1.3 Dawning on Me
1.4 Hot Scary Summer
2.1 The Soul Serene
2.2 Darling Arithmetic
2.3 Little Bigot
2.4 No One to Blame
2.5 So Naïve
3.1 Death Trap Kid
4.1 Dawning on Me (Crouch Angeles Version)
