LAW & ORDER (VINYL)

Jonathan Rado is a songwriter, a staid performer, an evangelical producer; the 23-year-old California native's solo project, the new 'Law & Order,' fashioned on brief sabbatical from his main project, Foxygen, is a deliciously self-conscious piece of esoteric apocrypha, Like character games, or symphonies of nonsense imitation-language, his records are cathartic, designed only to liberate the body and break the awkwardness of obsessive, existential silence.
