THE PETER PAN OF POP

I did a post a while back on Discovery, an electronic side project between Vampire Weekend's pianist and Ra Ra Riot's lead singer, and decided to do another being that they'll be releasing their debut album LP, on July 7th. The 10-track will include a Jackson 5 cover "I Want You Back," which seems strangely appropriate for MJ's passing. 

Michael Jackson never seemed like he really grew up. He was always a kid at heart, and Discovery's tone of child-like innocence seems to convey that perfectly. It's kind of crazy, but just enough to work.

    This photo brought tears to my eyes, what a baby face.
    & it's always sad when an American icon passes away.
    You said it perfectly Ian France, thanks.
