And all of a sudden, he's everybody's darling. Today, even the guys at Pitchfork seem to like him, though up to now they never seemed particularly fond of Ariel Marcus Rosenberg's efforts. Anyway, it's never too late to change your mind. In any case, Ariel Pink and his Haunted Graffiti's upcoming album Before Today (due 8 June on 4AD) is highly anticipated by pretty much everyone right now. And just in time before next month's release, the great FACT Magazine has published its mix #152, compiled by Ariel Pink together with his band. And it's a real delight, 50 minutes of weirdo pop from all over the planet. Check the whole playlist here.

Be sure to download it soon, as it will only be available for three weeks, and you don't want to miss it, believe me.
