█▒██ ██▒█
█░█▒ Edmonton-raised Montreal-based Mac DeMarco made the ▒█░█
█░█▒ pages of many a blog buzz with his debut tape û and ▒█░█
█░█▒ by this we mean actual cassette, retro fans û under ▒█░█
█░█▒ the none-more-contrivedly-cool name Makeout ▒█░█
█░█▒ Videotape. He went on to cause something of an ▒█░█
█░█▒ alcohol-sodden splash on tour with fellow ▒█░█
█░█▒ Canadians, two-piece firebrands Japandroids, along ▒█░█
█░█▒ the way terming his own music ôjizz-jazzö and most ▒█░█
█░█▒ recently reverting to his given name and causing a ▒█░█
█░█▒ smile to rise across the hipstersÆ collective ▒█░█
█░█▒ roll-up-stained teeth with the drugged out madness ▒█░█
█░█▒ of the video for his 7ö æOnly YouÆ. ▒█░█
█░█▒ ▒█░█
█░█▒ ItÆs not a new thing to see definitively ▒█░█
█░█▒ underground artists use the trappings of pop to ▒█░█
█░█▒ subvert both the alternative and the mainstream û ▒█░█
█░█▒ think Peaches and maybe Patrick Wolf to an extent. ▒█░█
█░█▒ DeMarco has, over these 11 tracks, done it with ▒█░█
█░█▒ considerably more aplomb, humour and entertainment ▒█░█
█░█▒ value than one has a right to expect from what are ▒█░█
█░█▒ so often cerebral exercises in audience ▒█░█
█░█▒ manipulation. ▒█░█
█░█▒ ▒█░█
█░█▒ Sitting comfortably as the newest addition to the ▒█░█
█░█▒ roster of Captured Tracks, home to many the ▒█░█
█░█▒ revivalist act, DeMarco marks himself out from the ▒█░█
█░█▒ pack by celebrating what can only be described as ▒█░█
█░█▒ an imagined, half-dreamed style of the æ80s via the ▒█░█
█░█▒ æ50s that he himself has created. ▒█░█
█░█▒ ▒█░█
█░█▒ Take æBabyÆs Wearing Blue JeansÆ , the tale of ôA ▒█░█
█░█▒ fine lookinÆ woman/In a pair of jeansö thatÆs as ▒█░█
█░█▒ amusing as it is lascivious and shares, along with ▒█░█
█░█▒ nearly all the tracks here, a repetitive, ▒█░█
█░█▒ high-toned rockabilly guitar line that somehow ▒█░█
█░█▒ makes it as addictive as crack and candy. A ▒█░█
█░█▒ catchy-as-hell bit of snarl-lipped sexuality, with ▒█░█
█░█▒ the past revered unrealistically: ôStay with me ▒█░█
█░█▒ forever/DonÆt take off those jeansö he warbles. It ▒█░█
█░█▒ lands firmly between the actual sounds of Sun ▒█░█
█░█▒ Studios and the way those sounds were ruined on the ▒█░█
█░█▒ soundtracks of so many teen movies. ▒█░█
█░█▒ ▒█░█
█░█▒ æIÆm A ManÆ pushes the overstatement further, a ▒█░█
█░█▒ Velvet Underground-gone-macho ode to ▒█░█
█░█▒ heterosexuality with a collapsing disco beat and ▒█░█
█░█▒ the album microcosm lyric ôCreeping around up and ▒█░█
█░█▒ down town/Got the late night shift, rollinÆ up like ▒█░█
█░█▒ thisö. ThereÆs an unmistakable whiff of The Cramps ▒█░█
█░█▒ (themselves crazed on sentimentalism and debauchery ▒█░█
█░█▒ in equal measure) here, and itÆs a welcome scent. ▒█░█
█░█▒ ▒█░█
█░█▒ For the most part though weÆre dealing with great ▒█░█
█░█▒ tunes like the title track, boasting a very basic ▒█░█
█░█▒ electro-acoustic riff while that high geetar rings ▒█░█
█░█▒ and DeMarco sleazes out an invitation to join him ▒█░█
█░█▒ at the titular den of iniquity û itÆs an ▒█░█
█░█▒ atmospheric 1980s Robbie Robertson song with the ▒█░█
█░█▒ early rock ænÆ roll embellishments of pulsing ▒█░█
█░█▒ hi-hats and simplistic, primal instrumentation. ▒█░█
█░█▒ ▒█░█
█░█▒ Strangely, in the second and weaker half of the ▒█░█
█░█▒ album you could be forgiven for thinking that any ▒█░█
█░█▒ number of Flying Nun bands had suddenly taken an ▒█░█
█░█▒ interest in filthy sex and pelted out half-DIY ▒█░█
█░█▒ indie, half Jerry Lee Lewis numbers like the warped ▒█░█
█░█▒ æSheÆs Really All I NeedÆ and the parallel-universe ▒█░█
█░█▒ novelty hit æMove Like MikeÆ û perhaps the ▒█░█
█░█▒ silliest, cheekiest tune on the record. ▒█░█
█░█▒ ▒█░█
█░█▒ There are a couple of duff notes hit û when he goes ▒█░█
█░█▒ for sincerity, as on æOne More Tear to CryÆ, itÆs ▒█░█
█░█▒ hard to buy into for obvious reasons and closer æMe ▒█░█
█░█▒ and MineÆ, like its title, sounds like a Macca ▒█░█
█░█▒ outtake (shudder). The radio station idents, too, ▒█░█
█░█▒ while adding a little Parisian/Hollywood Tarantino ▒█░█
█░█▒ cool are an indulgence at best. ▒█░█
█░█▒ ▒█░█
█░█▒ Yet this is a really cool, engaging record. The ▒█░█
█░█▒ enduring image is perhaps that conjured by ▒█░█
█░█▒ æEuropean VegasÆ û heÆs some kinda transsexual ▒█░█
█░█▒ Ferris Bueller, taking a night instead of a day ▒█░█
█░█▒ off, and in place of singing æTwist and ShoutÆ at a ▒█░█
█░█▒ parade heÆs screaming an old Roxy Music song at ▒█░█
█░█▒ some filthy little no-name club, a ferocious, ▒█░█
█░█▒ knowing grin on his make-up smeared face. Winner. ▒█░█
