Best Of 2013, Guest Editors: Devendra Banhart On M.E.N.

As 2013 comes to an end, we are taking a look back at some of our favorite posts of the year by our guest editors.

DevendraBanhartLogoLife after 30 finds the original freak folker putting away hippy-dippy things. Meet Devendra Banhart Version 2.0: shorn, showered, shaved, engaged, focused and wearing a shirt. He’s also making the finest music of his career. New album Mala (Nonesuch) is the best thing he’s done since his debut. Guest appearances are few and far between, so what comes through is the thing that’s always been Banhart’s greatest asset: himself. He will be guest editing magnetmagazine.com all week. Read our recent print cover story on him.

Banhart: With M.E.N.’s tender delivery and hook-laden melody, I challenge you to not be instantly endeared to this pop genius!
