Junk
M83, aka Anthony Gonzalez, announces the highly anticipated details of his forthcoming full-length album, JUNK Following the critically acclaimed silver album Hurry Up, We#re Dreaming, featuring Grammy nominated single #Midnight City,# and two triumphant years of world touring, Gonzalez - who serves as M83#s musical architect, songwriter, front man and primary vocalist - returns with an artistic evolution, explaining, #I want to show different sides of me on this album. I want to come back with something more intimate, yet somehow with#less me!# Feeling a renewed kinship with Gonzalez#s early musical inspirations like Tangerine Dream, Aphex Twin, and genre-expanding visionaries like Brian Wilson and Kevin Shields, Gonzalez both returns to his roots with this album, yet makes a logical leap forward. And while M83 albums has always combined genres in a nostalgic and provocative way # from shoegaze and ambient to synth-pop and #90s alt-rock # for JUNK, Gonzalez experiments adventurously with sounds and styles he#s never previously attempted in his music. #All my albums have layers of eclecticism to them, but with this album I wanted to take that even further,# he says. On the album title #JUNK,# Gonzalez divulges, "Anything we create today is going to end up being space junk at one point anyway, and I find it really fascinating and scary at the same time - beautiful too in a way. I have this image of pieces of humanity floating in space, lost forever. It also means that nowadays everything goes so fast and everybody is kind of throwing away art in a certain manner. People will listen to an album for instance and just pick a track they like to put on a playlist. They're not going to take the time to listen to an album anymore because they have to jump on the next thing.#
