Product Details

Ariel Pink spent years circulating homemade cassette recordings through underground channels before R. Stevie Moore and the Animal Collective camp helped bring his warped, bedroom-studio pop to wider attention. By 2012, he had fully stepped into a studio environment without losing the strangeness that made him a cult figure in the first place, and *Mature Themes* finds him leaning into glam, new wave, and soft-rock influences with an unsettling sincerity.

Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti's Mature Themes is the band's second album for 4AD and the official follow-up to its 2010 breakthrough album, Before Today. "Sonically, it's comparable," Pink says of the 13 songs he's penned. "There are definitely not any links to my lo-fi origins.
