The praise for Phosphorescent’s Here’s To Taking It Easy is pouring in. Taking Mojo’s album of the month honors, the glowing review says that songwriter Matthew Houck, “produces songs that skitter round your peripheral vision, hide in the back of your mind, their outlaw mental state playing hide-and-seek behind classic rock curtains.” Uncut offer equally gushing praise, calling it, “a bold record, steeped in Neil Young’s ‘Doom Trilogy’ and the rich sounds of classic rock.” Q Magazine also joins the fray, calling the album a, “mouthwatering harvest of Gene Clark and Neil Young’s fantasy offspring.”
Here’s To Taking It Easy is due out on May 11 (May 10 in the UK), and we are pleased to offer a second MP3 from the album, “The Mermaid Parade.” This is a song that will make you hit repeat, an absolute stunner. “The Mermaid Parade” is an instant classic. Download it now.
You can now pre-order Here’s To Taking It Easy from Dead Oceans and you will receive an instant MP3 download of the album. Order here and let the magic touch your ears.

Blowing my mind. The first single and Los Angeles are classics like Wolves, lamb/dove and cocaine. The rest is excellent, reminds me of how Van Morrison built St. Dominic’s Preview. I anticipate this being my summer album.
