────┤ Notes  ├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
    └────────┘

     Philadelphia songwriter Kurt Vile was already recording himself at home by
     age 14, shortly after his bluegrass-loving father purchased him a banjo to
     encourage his youthful creativity. By age 17, Vile was self-releasing
     cassettes of his home recordings, which in the earliest days were strongly
     influenced by the raw slacker pop of the Drag City roster. He would
     continue to record prolifically, releasing cassettes and CD-Rs of his solo
     material while holding down a day job as a forklift operator.

     Kurt Vile lit up the indie rock radar in 2009 with his cynical, lo-fi,
     classic rock-meets-NYC proto-punk Matador debut. Fans of the visceral,
     D.I.Y. fuzz-folk that dominated "Childish Prodigy" may be taken aback by
     the production upgrade on "Smoke Ring For My Halo", but the cleaner sound
     doesn't mean that the floors aren't still filthy. Channeling everyone from
     the Dead to Mellow Gold-era Beck to Lou Reed, Vile comes off as malcontent,
     but thereÆs an oddball warmth behind his laconic sneer that echoes the late
     slacker comedian Mitch Hedberg; for every 'I wanna write my whole life
     down/burn it there to the ground' ('On Tour'), there's an 'If it ain't
     workin', take a whiz on the world' ('Runner Ups').

     Sweeter and a little more soulful than "Prodigy", "Halo" leans harder on
     the urban folk side of Vile's disposition (the album opens with a
     straight-up love song), but tracks like the churning "Puppet To The Man"
     and "Society Is My Friend" pick up where Prodigy stompers like "Freak
     Train" and "Overnight Religion" left off. Vile's guitar work remains
     predictably strong, especially on the fingerpicked "Peeping Tomboy" and the
     shimmery title cut, but it's his efforltess, serpentine melodies and
     amiable, burnout wisdom that keep the listener so enthralled.

     In an age where angst is delivered with the subtlety of a laser light show,
     it's nice to hear some good, old-fashioned, smokin-and-drinkin-cheap-beers-
     on-the-porch-with-your-friends-style pessimism.
