Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffitti || Listen

Ariel Marcus Rosenberg aka Ariel Pink is one of the most baffling figures in music. Just large enough for freak-folks the world over to know him, but just small enough to still be something of a secret, Rosenberg has built a weird aura of strange 70s soundtracks and lo-fi, vinyl-ripped 80s TV jingles. He’s a master of melody and a bard of bubbly psych-pop, but still he lingers on the fringes even of the more aware. Maybe a new album in 2008 will change that. For now, we’ll have to be content with 17 songs culled from the beautifully mysterious period that surrounds his first full-length release, 2002’s House Arrest. Scared Famous is a nice refresher as to why people love this guy in the first place, but I’ll be more interested to see what’s in store for 2008. Odds are that it will be more of the gloriously gritty avant-pop that Rosenberg has made his name on. – Audiveristy
