Dirty ProjectorsFourteen years into their career, Dirty Projectors have released their one and only eponymous release.
It is unpredictable, genre-defying, endlessly creative and, yet, brilliantly focused, a breakup album, rooted in personal and artistic rebirth. Accordingly, the opening track's title, Keep Your Name, summons ideas of regeneration, divorce, marriage and the weight of the past all at once while the song itself loops a warped cover of the band's own 2012 Impregnable Question. Dirty Projectors is obsessed with emotional and sonic ghosts and its glaring absence: Amber Coffman, David Longstreth's lost love and the Projectors' lost guitarist.
