D'EON - 'Transparency'

Origin: Montreal, QC
Category: STUFFED CRUST PIZZA
Cherchez La Moose: D'Eon is an emerging artist in the Montreal indie scene. He recently released a split LP with another buzz-generating newbie named Grimes, who directed this video. I actually love Transparency; it's strange, retro, hypnotic, and quite interesting lyrically. The video, unfortunately, is a piece of coal in a Christmas stocking. It's a wet fart on a rainy day. It's just lame. I understand that they probably didn't have much of a budget to work with, but that isn't the problem - the video reeks of pretentious Montreal hipsterdom. I want to hear more from d'Eon though; not only does he have a cool sound, but he has the talent to back it up (he is a classical pianist).
