Description
'The Magnetic Fields return with "Quickies," a remarkable addition to their eclectic discography, showcasing the indie pop genius of Stephin Merritt. This album, released in 2020, is a collection of 28 short, witty tracks, each telling a unique story within a span of under three minutes. Merritt's sharp, literate lyrics and the band's inventive arrangements shine across genres from folk to synth-pop. "Quickies" features the band's signature blend of humour and melancholy, making it a compelling listen for fans and newcomers alike. This album reaffirms The Magnetic Fields' status as masterful storytellers in the music world.'
