Our Take

Mac DeMarco's "Salad Days" is like a soothing cup of tea on a rainy day in London - comforting, nostalgic, and just a little bit eccentric. The Canadian singer-songwriter's third studio album is a delightful blend of jangly guitars, dreamy vocals, and off-kilter lyrics that will have you swaying in your Doc Martens. From the laid-back grooves of "Let Her Go" to the bittersweet balladry of "Passing Out Pieces", DeMarco effortlessly weaves together elements of indie rock, psychedelic pop, and slacker charm. His effortless charisma and quirky sense of humour shine through on tracks like "Chamber of Reflection", where he muses on existential dread with a twinkle in his eye. But don't mistake DeMarco's easygoing persona for a lack of depth - "Salad Days" is filled with moments of introspection and vulnerability, revealing a more sensitive side to the self-proclaimed prince of "jizz jazz". Tracks like "Brother" and "Goodbye Weekend" showcase DeMarco's knack for crafting beautifully melancholic melodies that tug at the heartstrings. Overall, "Salad Days" is a charming album that captures the essence of a lazy summer day spent lounging in the park with friends and a few cans of warm lager. It's quirky, infectious, and utterly charming - just like its creator. So grab yourself a pint, put on your favourite pair of thrift store sunglasses, and let Mac DeMarco serenade you into a blissful stupor. Cheers, mate!
