Mala Digital FLAC AlbumMala, Devendra Banhart's eighth studio album and his Nonesuch debut, took shape in LA, where he and longtime cohort Noah Georgeson produced the album together, playing most of the instruments themselves, using borrowed equipment and a recorder theyd found in a pawn shop. The Guardian says it's a "triumph," giving it four stars, as does Q which calls this "enthralling" album a "career best." The New Yorker calls it a "thought provoking joy."
