"Salad Days" shares its name with Mac DeMarco's second album, which Captured Tracks released on April 1, 2014, and the credits are all his: the Canadian wrote the words and music, recorded it and produced it himself. He worked up the album's material in his apartment in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, after a long stretch of touring in 2013 behind Rock and Roll Night Club and 2, both from 2012.
It wasn't one of the album's singles, which went to "Passing Out Pieces" and "Brother", but it lent its title to a record that won over critics and entered the Billboard 200 at number 30, and DeMarco took that record on the road across North America, South America and Europe.
