We're more than aware that the internet can be a place of great hyperbole, but damn if the mouth foaming on this one isn't warranted. Ernest Greene bka Washed Out has been spilling lots of ink since a few home demos surfaced earlier this summer, and while that is great, a quick glance at his blog reveals he's spent the ensuing months just like we did–biking, swimming, hanging with friends, and taking photos. I say this because his music perfectly encapsulates such pleasure-seeking–it's like hearing Depeche Mode from the inside of a lava lamp. "Belong," from the limited High Times cassette due next week through Mirror Universe, and "Feel It All Around," from the Life Of Leisure EP, out now through Mexican Summer, were our go-to late-summer tunes. And between the above photo and their titles, you kind of know what you're getting into here. So long, Summer. It's been real.
