Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded entirely at home using a minimalist tape machine setup, 'Motorcycle Madness' finds veteran songwriter Damien Jurado pivoting toward hazy, hypnagogic psychedelic pop. The album is characterized by its warbling, lo-fi aesthetic, utilizing analog drum machines, thick basslines, and saturated electric guitars. It represents a quirky, notably experimental departure from his traditionally acoustic folk catalog.
