  The record deliberately strips away some of the dreaminess associated with Deerhunter in favor of something harsher and more emotionally ragged. Bradford Cox channels breakup grief and self-loathing into blown-out garage rock, fraught nerves, and sudden moments of tenderness. Songs often sound like they’re barely holding together structurally or psychologically. That instability gives Monomania its intensity.
