Album Notes & Community Reviews

The veteran American avant-garde guitarist masterfully distills the blues idiom into profound, nearly beatless atmospheric minimalism. The entirely instrumental album consists of incredibly sparse, delay-drenched electric guitar improvisations that evoke a deeply melancholic, haunted, and spiritually desolate sonic landscape.
