Can you believe it? Devendra Banhart’s Cripple Crow – originally released by XL in 2005 – is turning 20 years old. This was the 5th album from the Venezuelan American artist who is considered the pioneer of the “Freak Folk” and “New Weird America” movements. To celebrate – Devendra has compiled a reissue of the out of print release that features a 3rd Bonus LP (on Clear Green Smoke!) featuring 9 bonus tracks, including 1 B-Side, 5 previously unreleased demos, 2 previously unreleased live tracks, and 1 unearthed smash hit from the recording sessions.
This release is the first on his newly created Heavy Flowers label.
The album received a “Best New Music” 8.4 review from Pitchfork upon its release. The release date will fall 1 day prior to the actual 20th Anniversary, which will be the first time Devendra is early for anything. Now THAT is something to celebrate!
