Debacle is run by one dude, Sam Melancon, out of Seattle and he’s been at it for over a decade. It’s been an AGB mainstay ever since I first heard that Megabats record back in 2009 and I’ve been faithful ever since (oh what’s that? you’re wondering what my favorite Debacle release is? so glad you asked. it’s almost certainly Total Life’s Bender/Drifter). From now until the end of the month (I think?) he’s got just about every release on the Bandcamp page set to pay what you want. So go download literally everything because it’s super eclectic and all 100% amazing and throw Sam as much money as you can. Then make sure you head back later this year when he drops the new High Aura’d and Aquarelle records (!!!!!).
