Kurt Vile & The Violators

Philadelphia psych-pop master Kurt Vile has referred to himself as “Philly’s constant hitmaker”, and while he gave himself that name with a sly wink, he was also nodding toward the song-writing prowess that would result in him becoming one of his home city’s most celebrated rock artists. The latest and ninth studio album, ‘(watch my moves)’, by the brilliant indie folk singer, is a sprawling majestic gem of dream-pop wonder.
