Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded sporadically over several years while extensively touring, the incredibly laid-back Philadelphian's seventh studio album is a remarkably sprawling, gently psychedelic effort. Heavily featuring extended, hypnotic acoustic guitar jams that frequently stretch past the ten-minute mark, the record is anchored by his signature deadpan, warmly existential lyricism. It stands as a delightfully meandering, deeply relaxing document of classic indie-folk slack.
