Though he’s never had any formal musical training, Davis can’t remember a time in which music wasn’t a part of his life. When it came time to make his own record, Davis says: “I was always hoping I could find a way to blend everything together and get away with doing a bunch of different genres all at once, because I don’t like dwelling on a certain sound.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDespite so much going on behind the scenes, nothing about The Haunt sounds overworked. A breezy, upbeat listen, it’s very much in tune with the spirit of 70s pop that Davis loves for the way it strikes a balance between musicality and catchiness, complexity and brevity. These are composed, layered songs made with care, but also made to make you smile. The result is a uniquely personal statement brimming with color and optimism even as it ponders universal themes of introspection and loneliness—a record that could only have been made by Mitch Davis.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn the Morning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBear the Cold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLet it Die\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeft Inside\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Fall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat You Say\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHope That\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy City Life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdle Days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Haunt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 844667053067\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Arbutus Records\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.29.22\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Apocalypse Vinyl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42870472278078,"sku":"108209","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2059\/7683\/files\/4068946-2800958.jpg?v=1780855517","url":"https:\/\/goldenapplecomics.com\/products\/the-haunt-lp","provider":"Golden Apple Comics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
