Holiday

by The Magnetic Fields

Holiday cover art

'Holiday' is a brilliant display of Stephin Merritt's deadpan wit and incredibly melodic synthpop songwriting. The album utilizes lo-fi production and sarcastic, humorous lyrics to construct a series of bittersweet and romantic indie pop postcards that are both quirky and psychedelic.
