Adem K - The Community Chest CD

Fri, 18 May 2012 12:27:12 +0000

The Community Chest is Adem K's (formerly of Turnstyle, The Burton Cool Suit) debut solo record. This album sees K’s pop sensibility run wild, combining the blues-rock fuzz of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club with dreamy Beach Boys harmonies on opening track 200 Year Old Volkswagon, side-stepping between winsome verses and jerky choruses on third track Burning Questions for Sportsgirl, then rediscovering his synth roots with fifth track barn burner Ceiling to the Floor. In addition to reaffirming his status as the best song title-er in the business, these songs show off the breadth, skill and eclecticism of K’s songwriting while at the same time providing the same wit and slacker 90s grit as his past projects. Purchase it here! It is also available on itunes and emusic.com.
