David Bazan - Dark Sacred Night (November 11th,2016) Album

iCarly Rae Jepsen · Oct 9, 2016

Few artists are better equipped to tackle a Christmas album than David Bazan. Part of this comes down to experience—Bazan has been releasing holiday tracks since 2002, the midst of his Pedro The Lion days. His delicate, natural melancholy seeped into covers of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" and Low's "Long Way Around the Sea." He drew from the contemporary and classical in equal measure, eradicating the space between the two.

Dark Sacred Night, his forthcoming Christmas record, set to be released by Suicide Squeeze on November 11, retraces those steps, remastering ten of those long since out-of-print cuts. "It seemed like an interesting challenge," Bazan said, announcing the record. "As a musician, my relationship with Christmas and its music is pretty strange. It's the normal band dude relationship with that stuff, but then also throw in Christianity and all that shit… my discomfort seemed appropriate for the material. I'm bringing up a lot of hard things in terms of religion, family, commercialism gone mad."

One of the best artists in the game. From his solo stuff to Pedro the Lion. I love it all, not a fan of Christmas but I will listen to this album and love it solely because its Bazan.
