=======================
Discover America is the most recent secretion of musical
chameleon Chris Staples. It's a wound that has been oozing for
almost a decade now. First with sorely missed angular-rock
band twothirtyeight. Later with a Neil Young-esque solo
career. Now he's back with a batch of quirky, hip, retro,
upbeat tunes.
The appropriately titled debut album, "Psycholgy," is a
journey to distant lands of jangly angular rock music. There
we will find some carnival-esque melodies and some distant
lo-fi hip hop beats...if you can imagine a ghetto blaster in
some back alley pouring out it's coarse rythym. Loads of
quirky guitar lines and walking bass. "Psychology" explores
the human psyche from an objective point of view. "I wanted to
point out how predicable and unoriginal we are," says Staples.
Themes include the afterlife, the biology of human love,
childhood, faking hipness, commanding females, social
difficulty, and the relationship between faith/doubt.
"Psychology" hits stores on April 26th.
Chris resides in Seattle, Washington via sunny Florida. He
installs kitchen cabinets and engineers independant records in
his home studio, The Snake Ranch. He is 26 years old.
