Released in 2010, nearly a decade into his craft, \"Black City\" was a watershed moment for Matthew Dear. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA steely noir set that straddled electronic dance and indie rock classification, earning him \"Best New Music\" from Pitchfork and a worldwide tour with a besuited band, the album unlocked Dear's darkest and most engrossing ideas to date. The love-obsessed songwriter of 2007's \"Asa Breed\" had given way to a more existentially paranoid entity. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCreeping disco tempos, cavernous atmospherics, and strange distortions brought his signature avant-pop sound to a moodier place. \"Black City\" wasn't to be found on any map. It was a composite, an imaginary metropolis peopled by desperate cases, lovelorn souls, and amoral motives, with flashes of sweetness and hope.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Encore Records Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58217616441727,"sku":"make room box","price":8.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0976\/0525\/5551\/files\/0037745961_10_1910e8af-a8ca-41f4-af3f-ff5a08c57f1b.jpg?v=1787206515","url":"https:\/\/thevinyltable.com\/products\/lp-matthew-dear-black-city","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
