Released in 2010 on the storied 4AD label, Before Today marked a landmark moment for Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti, bringing the Los Angeles-based project to a wider audience. Recorded across multiple studios in LA and Dallas between October 2009 and February 2010, the album showcases Ariel Pink's signature blend of hazy psychedelic pop and lo-fi rock, with standout track "Round and Round" even receiving the prestigious treatment of being mastered at Abbey Road Studios in London.
Celebrated as one of the defining albums of 2010, Before Today is a hypnotic journey through Ariel Pink's eccentric, genre-blurring songwriting — a sound that draws equally from classic pop, rock, and something altogether harder to categorize. Fans of inventive, idiosyncratic music that sits outside the mainstream will find this a deeply rewarding listen, a record that rewards repeated spins and reveals new layers with every play.
