warm, breezy vibes pump throughout the heart of this kaleidoscopic work of summery psych-pop from the allah-las singer/guitarist; essential for fans of mac demarco and connan moccasin.

On his first solo album, he started by four-tracking his own strange, slow-growing ideas just after Allah-Las’ third album, ‘Calico Review’ (2016) - fed or led by a certain acid-bitter poetry (Gregory Corso and John Lennon) and the murky music of Kevin Ayers and Syd Barrett. The record has a happily paradoxical finished-but-not-finished-off feel, like Lou Reed and R. Stevie Moore and Julian Cope and Richard Hell.
