Now, after a year of touring (with Gym Class Heroes, Fall Out
Boy and Young Love, among others), Daniel Hunter is ready to
unleash his first full-length opus, Texas. Says Hunter, a
die-hard Cowboys fan: "I named it for the love of the state.
I assumed somebody had named their album 'Texas' before, but
no one had. I had to do it before someone else did!"

The songs showcase a slightly heavier guitar sound, but
maintain Hunter's quirky outlook and pop aesthetic. "I
actually write my guitar stuff first," says themusician.
"Then I compliment it with some beats or keyboards." But
whatever the case, there's definitely diversity at work. The
ballad "Pirate and Princess" features almost orchestral
flourishes, while "Tooth Decay" is more acoustic-based. The
album also marks the first time Hunter has worked with a
producer (Garrett Lee) and live drums.

Although the Postal Service and "poptronica" have been used
to describe PlayRadioPlay!'s gentle beats and
keyboard-centric songs, Hunter has created his own phrase to
describe the sound. "It's Texas Straight-edge Softcore," he
says, laughing. "I mean, I'm making fun of straight-edge
hardcore? a genre that I am not. Why can't there be
straight-edge softcore?"
