‘The spectacular Me Moan is a genre-pulverising collection of creepy modern murder ballads and damaged, neon-lit Americana” NME
‘Daughn Gibson is quite unlike anyone you will ever have heard’ The Guardian
‘All Hell throws up no barriers to access – if you have an abiding interest in great stories by a great new storyteller, it’ll welcome you in’ 9/10 SPIN
‘Daughn’s thick baritone breezes confidently over the songs, lassoing hook after hook, redeeming his burnt-out characters through song’ 8.1 Pitchfork
For those new to Daughn Gibson, the first name rhymes with the Vaughn’s Robert and Stevie Ray. He was born in the village of Nazareth, PA, (ironic given the title of his debut album All Hell) and currently resides in the sleepy college town of Carlisle, PA, where he frequents local watering holes like The Cave and Alibis. He’s 6’5”, hovers at 200 pounds and has a head of jet black hair thicker than a porcupine. He played drums in Pearls & Brass for a number of years, touring the US to small but enthusiastic crowds. For some time in between, Daughn was a trucker, but he’s also been packing boxes in an un-airconditioned warehouse, climbing up commercial broadcast towers with untested levels of radiation, working the register at an adult bookstore, doing sound at dive bars and collecting unemployment checks to earn to earn a living. Daughn’s been around.
Daughn Gibson first entered the minds and fantasies of the music loving public in the Spring of last year, care of his critically acclaimed debut album All Hell, released on Matthew K of Pissed Jeans’ label White Denim. At once both foreign and familiar, Daughn’s music is immediately striking, through the use of dusty thrift store records and baptized them as fierce, future Americana. His songs as frequently tender as they are prurient, as hopeful as they are brimming with despair. He treats the past with respectful reverence while still appreciating what is happening at the forefront of electronic production.
The follow up and Sub Pop debut Me Moan has taken All Hell’s wilful lead, grabbed the rule book, laughed in its face and driven it to the tip. The woozy baritone remains intact but what surrounds it is utterly unique. Like Scott Walker’s 1-4 sharing a drink with Waylon Jennings, neon lit and glowing with the hazily blue-ish light of a computer screen. Daughn was also going through a big Fleetwood Mac phase during the album’s gestation, endlessly submerged in Mirage and Tango In The Night, resulting in a record that bubbles with melodic invention, taking in the classics and re-tooling them to create an entirely new musical landscape. He also has a penchant for the likes of Demdike Stare and is smitten with all things hip hop. Like we said, Daughn likes to get around.
Me Moan isn’t just Daughn Gibson’s primal scream, it’s a skirmish through the full spectrum of emotion, unfiltered and impassioned. Like an aural amalgam of Cormac McCarthy and Robert Altman. Daughn is a uniquely American and modern artist who throw’s his romantic soul into his work, free of compromise, possessed by a singular vision. And because of this, it will take a few listens to get on board this particular freight train. But for Me Moan, we can surely all find the time. Better days are not yet done.
