Perfume Genius – Set My Heart On Fire Immediately (CD)
Product Details
Mike Hadreas has spent a decade building one of indie rock's most emotionally unguarded bodies of work, and this fifth album finds him pushing into rawer, more expansive sonic territory than ever before. The rhythm section alone, with Jim Keltner and Pino Palladino anchoring the sessions, gives these songs a physical weight that matches Hadreas's most visceral writing.
Set My Heart On Fire Immediately is the fifth studio album from Perfume Genius that will be released May 15th on Matador Records. It sees artist and musician Mike Hadreas re-teaming with GRAMMY-nominated producer Blake Mills and features contributions from musicians Jim Keltner, Pino Palladino and Matt Chamberlin. It was recorded in Los Angeles, where Perfume Genius settled in 2017 with longtime partner and musical collaborator Alan Wyffels. 'I wanted to feel more open, more free and spiritually wild,' says Hadreas, 'and I'm in a place now where those feelings are very close-- but it can border on being unhinged. I wrote these songs as a way to be more patient, more considered -- to pull at all these chaotic threads hovering around me and weave them in to something warm, thoughtful and comforting.'
