Album Notes & Community Reviews

Entirely written, recorded, and produced by the idiosyncratic Canadian songwriter in his Calgary garage studio, his sixth album delivers a collection of scruffy, psychedelic indie rock. The tracking balances chaotic, lo-fi guitar noise and strange analog synthesizer experiments with his fragile, Neil Young-esque vocal melodies. The lyricism explores themes of technological alienation and sci-fi paranoia.
