Let the Blind Lead Those Who Can See But Cannot Feel | Atlas Sound

ATLAS SOUND – alias Bradford Cox – who’s also the front man for Deerhunter, has a solo project out. Listen and learn more on hisspace. The music is described as both “ambient electronic” and “avant garage gauzy pop” — or whatever the fuck that means. Cox suffers from Marfan syndrome — a genetic disorder of the connective tissue — and that “outsiderness” greatly influences his music (Listen to Quarantined for example). More importantly he’s queer — a virgin!! — and wears dresses on stage.

The album’s from Feb 2008, but still deserves a look.
