2013 album from Electronic musician Alex Zhang Hungtai AKA Dirty Beaches. Drifters/Love Is the Devil is a sprawling album that chronicles the musicians life on the road over the past two years - through the labyrinths of Berlin, Belgrade, Paris, and many other cities; through heartbreak, rebirth and masochistic, existential self-reflection. Recorded between Montreal and Berlin in the winter of 2012, the two halves of Drifters/Love Is the Devil are separated only by aesthetics, as they are tightly woven together thematically as one conceptual piece. If 2011s Badlands was an exercise in exorcising past ghosts in a semi-fictional world, then Drifters/Love Is the Devil is a reflection on the fragility of reality - that of the outside world in which the artist explores the nightlife of bright neon temptations and hedonistic values, and that of the inner world, one of remorse and lovelorn tragedies.
