Dent May: Do Things

Funky, Brian-Wilson-influenced odd-pop jams Released on Animal Collective’s Pawtracks label, this is the second album from Mississippi-based oddity, Dent May. Ditching the Ukulele that made him (a little bit) famous, he returns with a very amiable album that is full of funk and fun. Don’t take my few short words for it, though! Just play it. Think: Sunnier Panda Bear tracks REC: 2,4,7,9 FCC: None Label: Pawtracks Release Date: Late June 2012 Alex Applegate reviewed this album on July 21, 2012 Album Stream
