Cougar Microbes Top Albums of 2011: Atlas Sound – Parallax


Deerhunter frontman Bradford Cox delivered his third official outing as Atlas Sound (if we exclude the ‘Bedroom Databank‘ free downloads from 2010) and it does not disappoint. ‘Parallax‘ shows similarities with Deerhunter‘s last opus ‘Halycon Digest‘ while ditching some of the noisier elements for a decidedly more candid and melodic delivery.

Cougar regular Olivia added ‘Parallax‘ to her top 10 revealing ‘I adore Bradley Cox in both Deerhunter or his solo project as Atlas Sound. This album is pure beauty, and as always, it’s all about intimacy, delicacy and humility
