NYC-based songwriter extraordinaire Mitski has just re-released her breakout record Bury Me At Make Out Creek via Don Giovanni Records. This release marks her joining of the Don Giovanni family and includes special, intimate unreleased tracks. With vivid lyrical imagery, buzzed out guitars and evocative vocals, Mitski has created a unique sound built upon her academic musical background, and as she makes the shift from concert hall to DIY venue her new relationship with the storied label will certainly continue to propel the transition.
 
Mitski took SXSW by storm, winning over crowds with her raw live intensity and soul-shaking lyrics. She just wrapped up a national tour with Hundred Waters and Screaming Females and will join Speedy Ortiz next week. Mitski put her unique touch on “Fireproof” one of her favorite songs from pop darlings One Direction. Paying homage to the percussive-driven original she reinvents the track into an indie rock anthem with gently growling grunge guitar, playful drums and her signature spellbinding vocal delivery.
 
Mitski shares, “We seem to delegitimize music that has a majority of young girl fans and think of it as having less cultural value. Isn't that strange? I'm not down with the elitism of indie rock music, where it considers itself to be more "serious" or "intelligent" than mainstream pop. That thought often has nothing to do with the composition or political motivations of the music as it's conveyed to be about, and more to do with its production, "aesthetic," and just another kind of branding. Here is a mainstream pop song that I liked and recorded with an "indie rock aesthetic." Is it more thoughtful now?”

Mistki’s “Fireproof” (One Direction Cover) premiered with Billboard 
today and we encourage you to post & share.

NYC-based songwriter extraordinaire Mitski has just announced that she will re-release her breakout record Bury Me At Make Out Creek, April 7th via Don Giovanni Records. This release will mark her joining of the Don Giovanni family and includes special unreleased tracks. In celebration, fans will have new chances to experience Mitski’s raw, soul-shaking live show as she tours with Hundred Waters this month and joinsScreaming Females and Speedy Ortiz on the road later this spring. With vivid lyrical imagery, buzzed out guitars and evocative vocals, Mitski has created a unique sound built upon her academic musical background, and as she makes the shift from concert hall to DIY venue her new relationship with the storied label will certainly continue to propel the transition.
 
The already critically-acclaimed Bury Me At Make Out Creek opens with “Texas Reznikoff,” a track that starts with soft and sparse acoustic chord progression, which subsequently erupts into a barrage of rib-rattling distortion. “First Love / Last Spring”showcases Mitski’s tremulous vocals and melodic-chops supported by a lone baseline before swelling into the sounds of an arpeggiated synthesizer and swelling organ. Meanwhile, standout track “Townie” brings to light the singer-songwriter’s dark sense of humor combined with a head-bopping blowout guitar riff. Today, Mitski unveils the animated video companion to “Townie”, which truly illuminates the song’s meaning.
