Album Notes & Community Reviews

Serving as the highly sought-after producer's third solo effort, the album represents a distinct shift away from the laurel canyon folk of his previous releases into lush, heavily arranged soft rock. Incorporating elaborate synthesizer textures and guest appearances from Lana Del Rey and Father John Misty, the project is a grand, psychedelic exploration of heartbreak.
