Did Djo name his album The Crux because it rhymes with “deluxe”? No one can prove he didn’t! I thought actor-musician Joe Keery acquitted himself well on that April LP, and then I saw Pavements and thought he was amazing as a fictionalized version of himself going method to play Stephen Malkmus. Now, after trickling out new songs all week (starting with Monday’s “Carry The Name“), Djo has surprise-released a whole second 12-song album called, indeed, The Crux Deluxe. Move over, Swag II!
