Mac DeMarco is less than a month away from the release of his latest album, This Old Dog. His first proper full-length since 2014’s Salad Days is being previewed today with “On the Level”. A lounge-y, synth-lined track, it can be heard down below.
“This record has a lot to do with my family and my life right now and the way I’m feeling,” the Canadian jizz jazzer said of This Old Dog in a press statement. “One of the main goals for this record was trying to make sure I retained some kind of realness. That’s the bottom line.”
Update: During a session on KCRW’s Morning Becomes Eclectic program, DeMarco debuted two more new songs off This Old Dog, as Pitchfork points out. Below, check out “Dreams from Yesterday” and “Moonlight on the River” at the nine-minute mark and 22:25 mark, respectively.
“On the Level” follows the title track (and its bizarre-o music video) and “My Old Man”. The album itself arrives on May 5th through Captured Tracks, and will later be supported with a bunch of tour dates across North America and Europe.
