Kurt Vile – Back to Moon Beach

Back to Moon Beach (Verve Records) is an EP by no one’s definition but Kurt Vile’s.  For Kurt, this collection is an expression of just how deep his well of non-album material runs.

The coke bottle clear Vinyl editions includes six tracks culled from various sessions over the last four years, representing a wide swath of the inspirational musical community Kurt surrounds himself with. “Vile remains our era’s great inheritor of the Neil Young/Meat Puppets/Dinosaur Jr. tradition of bending chords, spooling out hypnotic solos, and chilling with your demons until they start feeling like drinking buddies. — Rolling Stone
