David Grubbs - Guess at Riddle

The latest solo album from GASTR DEL SOL member and Blue Chopsticks label chief, David Grubbs, and his first song-oriented album since 2002's Rickets & Scurvy. Twelve masterful tracks - including a cover of Mayo Thompson's "Magnificence As Such" - that at times blend acoustic instrumentation with electronics, and at others go full tilt with a strong backing band. Includes guest contributions from NIKO VELIOTIS, MATMOS, ADAM PIERCE, THOMAS BELHOM, and RICK MOODY (who also wrote lyrics for two of the songs).
