Titus Andronicus - A Productive Cough

Merge - MRG606LP

Since debuting in 2008, Titus Andronicus [hereafter +@] has been conditioning faithful listeners to always expect only the unexpected, consistently zigging where others would zag and maintaining a steadfast dedication to fearless ambition. With the March 2 release of the new studio album A Productive Cough on Merge Records, +@ has executed the most shocking departure yet-but only if, as ever-mercurial singer-songwriter Patrick Stickles insists, "you haven't been paying attention."

A Productive Cough finds +@ setting aside the leadfooted punk anthems of yesteryear in favor of a subtler, more spacious approach that pushes Stickles' soul-baring songwriting to the fore, creating a conversational intimacy between artist and audience with which previous +@ efforts had only flirted. "[+@] records have always had their fair share of ballads," Stickles explains, "but they were always buried. Now, they are the cornerstones."
