Camper Van Beethoven- La Costa El Camino Real

Label: Freeworld

Released 2014

We are delighted to present the brand new album from indie rock stalwarts Camper Van Beethoven, with this follow up and companion album to their critically acclaimed La Cost Perdida. La Costa reflected the Northern California back to the countryside side of the band. The songs on El Camino are firmly rooted in a grittier Earth one that lies beneath the southern half of the state. Produced by the band, Camino's harder sonic edges capture the sounds of an entirely different road trip. Main man DAVID LOWERY says "The best way to look at the new album, is to draw a contrast between La Costa Perdida where the ocean is calm, benevolent, and famine; on El Camino the sea is filled with darkness, secrets, and chemicals."
