Exclusive Daily Download: "Oceans of Weep," Ariel Pink

Published December 5, 2005 8:01AM (EST)

The surreal and delightful pop music fantasia that is Ariel Pink's work continues with "House Arrest," another rerelease by the Animal Collective's Paw Tracks label of one of Pink's self-released CD-Rs. As with the previous two albums, it's like a painting of Lite FM music doctored with water until all the colors run together, a strange conceptual art reworking of a pulpish genre. The final track, "Oceans of Weep," is particularly expansive, and is a beautiful demonstration of Pink's artfully smudged sonic palette.
