Album of the Week (2/7/18): King Krule - The Ooz

Wed, 02/07/2018 - 10:57am | Eunah

King Krule The Ooz

Album of the Week is King Krule's latest release "The Ooz"

King Krule (a.k.a. Zoo Kid, DJ JD Sports, Edgar the Beatmaker, Edgar the Breathtaker, Lankslacks, The Return of Pimp Shrimp) is a prolific musical prodigy. His 2013 debut album "6 Feet Beneath the Moon" completely blew my mind. 4 years later, his 2017 album had just as strong of an impact. It may seem like a long break between album #1 and #2, but he's been producing music non-stop (just not as "King Krule"). 

The most distinctive quality of his music is probably his vocal delivery--it sounds almost slack-jawed, at a surprisingly low-timbre. You'd think this would make his lyrics sound garbled, but NO. His lyrics are at times odd, breathtakingly beautiful, mysterious, creepy, and every time I listen to the album I get hypnotized listening to him essentially talk-sing accompanied by trip-hop beats & shimmering guitar. 

Tune-in to the live broadcast 5-6PM tonight (2/8/18) to hear this gorgeous album in its entirety. Let it chill you out, bum you out, then lift you back up again.

Davisville, Feb. 5, 2018: An exit interview with Enterprise Editor Debbie Davis

Mon, 02/05/2018 - 6:05pm | Bill Buchanan

Debbie Davis.jpg

In early March, Debbie Davis will step down as editor of the Davis Enterprise after holding the job since the early 1980s. Today’s Davisville amounts to an exit interview as she talks about the job, journalism, what she'll miss about living in Davis, parting advice for the community, and what comes next—both for her, and for the paper. She’ll be succeeded by Sebastian Oñate, who is scheduled to appear on the next Davisville; her husband Bruce Gallaudet (he’s also retiring) will be replaced by Wayne Tilcock as sports editor.
