Kurt Vile - Childish Prodigy

Kurt Vile makes his Matador Record debut with Childish Prodigy. The album is a rich tapestry of rock and folk sounds, occasionally lo-fi, occasionally lustrous, hitting touchstones from Tom Petty to Street Legal-era Dylan to Spacemen 3 to Skip Spence.

Childish Prodigy is more diverse than previous efforts, and ranges from pounding rockers like "Hunchabck" and "Freak Train" to gorgeous folky numbers like "Overnight Religion" and the soaring trumpet in "Amplifier." This is an absorbing and addictive record with layers and layers of discovery.

This vinyl edition produced by Matador Records in 2009. Includes download card.
