Atlas

by Real Estate

supported by

heylisten This album takes me back to warmer summers. There's a carefree breeziness pervading each track that makes me think my youthful self is still out there, frozen in time.
The guitar melodies on here are some of the dreamiest RE has put out and without a doubt, they make this one of their finest sounding LPs to date.
I recall seeing them live and it was a wholesome experience I wish I'd repeat. If looking for something to have on repeat during mellow winters, this is just the thing. Favorite track: Talking Backwards.

about

Atlas, the new album from Real Estate, was recorded over the summer and fall of 2013 with producer Tom Schick [Rufus Wainwright, Mavis Staples, Low], and the ten-song album will be preceded by the release of the single "Talking Backwards".

To commence the follow-up to their sophomore breakout, Days, founding members Martin Courtney (guitar/vocals), Matt Mondanile (guitar) and Alex Bleeker (bass/vocals) were joined by new full-time members, Jackson Pollis(drums) and Matt Kallman (keyboard) and producer Schick this past summer at Wilco's Chicago studio, The Loft. Nineteen songs were recorded in all over a two-week period and the result is the band¹s most collaborative, richly detailed album to date. 2011¹s Days not only earned Real Estate their second consecutive Pitchfork Best New Music, they also played a Tiny Desk concert for NPR, appeared at major festivals like Coachella and Pitchfork, and toured with The Shins and Kurt Vile.

The cover art of Atlas features a detail taken from Alexander's Mural, an iconic North Jersey landmark created by artist Stefan Knapp that once hung on the side of Alexander¹s department store for over twenty years, not far from the band's hometown of Ridgewood, NJ.
