R E L E A S E I N F O R M A T I O N
Avigdor Zahner-Isenberg began writing songs as a high school
sophomore, using the name Avi Buffalo as his musical alias. Within a
year's time, the Long Beach native had put together a full band
comprising drummer Sheridan Riley, bassist Arin Fazio, and
keyboardist Rebecca Coleman. After playing several small shows, the
teenagers won the support of engineer Aaron Embry, who welcomed Avi
Buffalo into his home studio for a round of recording sessions. The
band's quirky lo-fi pop songs also attracted attention from Sub Pop
Records, and the label released Avi Buffalo's first single in late
2009, followed by a self-titled full-length outing in April 2010...
The second long-player from the West Coast indie pop confectioners
led by Avigdor Zahner-Isenberg, whose fondness for buffalo wings
yielded the nickname that would become the band's moniker, "At Best
Cuckold" lays to rest any notions of a sophomore slump, offering up
a dizzying ten-track set of warm and weird, immaculately crafted
psych-pop gems that blend the shifty art rock of MGMT with the
refined pop acumen of Sufjan Stevens. Designed and directed by
Isenberg and recorded with Jay Pellicci (The Dodos, Deerhoof,
Sleater-Kinney), "At Best Cuckold" begins innocuously enough with
the breezy "So What," a California sunset-ready highway (soft)
rocker that lulls the listener into submission, a trajectory that's
furthered by the Thunderclap Newman-inspired "Memories of You" and
the Neil Young-kissed "Two Cherished Understandings." '70s folk-pop
and rock may form the foundation of Avi Buffalo's sound, but
Isenberg isn't content with simply re-imagining the past, and "At
Best Cuckold" is at its most triumphant when it circumvents pastiche
and goes for the throat, both emotionally and sonically.
A palpable sense of metaphysical dread accompanies two of the
album's strongest cuts, the nervy and hallucinatory "Think It's
Gonna Happen Again" and the sweetly unhinged "Oxygen Tank," the
latter a densely packed rumination on anxiety that amalgamates the
pop craftsmanship of Burt Bacharach with the cosmic wonder of Wayne
Coyne, and that sense of agitation is what ultimately wins the
listener over in the end. Isenberg and company were just high
schoolers when Sub Pop released their debut in 2010, and while the
rest of us went to work or college or worse after graduation, Avi
Buffalo hit the road, but they too spent those formative years
navigating the strange cognitive duality of post-high school young
adulthood, and the sad, strange, and beautiful "At Best Cuckold"
does an awfully nice job distilling that unease into audio form.
