Amen Dunes unveils final album, Death Jokes II
Damon McMahon has released the brand new remix album, Death Jokes II, as the final work of the acclaimed Amen Dunes project.
"This is the last chapter of the final volume. Goodbye, I've barely said a word to you, but it's always like that at parties - we never really see each other, we never say the things we should like to; in fact it's the same everywhere in this life. Let's hope that when we are dead things will be better arranged," he shared.
In reimagining the album as Death Jokes II, McMahon revisited all that material for stripped down remixes of the songs by Craig Silvey. These new mixes also include unheard contributions from notable Death Jokes contributors Panoram, Kwake Bass (Dean Blunt, MF DOOM), Christoffer Berg (Fever Ray), and Robbie Lee, a multi-instrumentalist and NYC veteran.
Amen Dunes was founded in 2006 with D.I.A., an album he recorded on an eight-track recorder in a trailer in Upstate New York. It grew from there, with McMahon releasing six full-length albums and 2 EPs over the last 18 years. His final album, Death Jokes II, is a reworked version of his Sub Pop debut, Death Jokes, released earlier this year.
