Lackthereof, Danny Seim’s side project, doesn’t attempt to step outside the Menomena shadow it’s been veiled under, and why should it?  I’ve been wanting to hear a new Menomena song for a while, and “Last November” is a great addition to the catalogue.

Much like Autolux, Lackthereof / Menomena focuses heavily on setting the mood of a song through droning keys/guitars and crisp, up front percussion.  Danny Seim’s drum sounds make other drummers weep in shame, and just to prove it’s not some studio magic he brings the same tone and precision to his live show.

Your Anchor comes out on July 22nd through Barsuk.
