^Hmmm – interesting. Funny you should mention Father John Misty because for a ‘sounds like’, I’d choose Suzanne Vega x Fleet Foxes. ? Similar narrative style to the former and some of the luminosity of the latter – experimental alt/folk??
There’s quite a bit of sung prose, which I’m not entirely sold on (generally speaking), with a few exceptions, but it’s nice to hear something completely different to most new releases especially as I’m struggling to find anything to listen to this week – so thanks for the push!
I like this, largely – you get the sense that it’s an album of well-considered and prepared material – pretty heavy subject matter all the way through and that’s fine, someone must say these things, just not sure how many times I’ll want to listen to them! Half an hour would have been enough for my presently rather limited attention span – started glazing over a bit after that. Lol!
That mask reminds of the mummified Inca ice maiden – I'm sure there are more than one, but the famous one.
I'd have chosen the same track as you CH.
