lluminati, an album of electro-acoustic pop that King recorded alone on his computer. Only slightly less elusive than its title, it’s a foggy window into King’s eclectic tastes, with drifting, Deerhoof-esque soundscapes interrupted by splashes of bombastic art-rock in the mold of Talking Heads and Wolf Parade.

lyrics
up there
sticking needles in your arm
just to see how far you could get along
i got no time for dolls
i'll be alone
i caught you in fire escape
told me your just trying to get straight tonight
then things got a little bit weird
told me you were moving to the country
kid said they were hard to soft
felt different when the hard wore off.
been this way since i was 17
letting it go
this would be better if i let it go
you caught me in the fire escape
i told you i'm just trying to escape tonight
then things got a bit crippled
i told you i wasn't;t the right ripple.
