Daniel Johnston : Artistic Vice (Light Blue/ Peach Swirl Vinyl)

Artistic Vice’ was the first album on which Daniel Johnston fronted a band. This album is a testament to Johnston’s own innate musicality that the songs lend themselves so perfectly to the casual accompaniment heard here. They can shift easily from quiet country balladry to punkish rave ups. As always, his songs are direct, honest, hook-laden, and imminently coverable.
