Kurt Vile - Childish Prodigy

Kurt Vile's Childish Prodigy is one of the best albums I've heard all year. It's really straightforward, sonically pretty dirty (yet big & brilliant!), and acerbic. The mood is somewhat down, but a comforting sort of down, an "oh well, let's make the best of it" kind of down. The music itself is unobtrusively interesting and engaging, somehow modest and assertive at the same time. What a great find! 4.5/5
