Ouroboros

by Ray LaMontagne

Co-produced heavily by Jim James of My Morning Jacket, the Grammy-winning songwriter takes a massive stylistic left-turn into hazy, 1970s-inspired psychedelic rock. The album is structured as a continuous two-part suite, abandoning his traditional folk-soul structures for expansive guitar jams and atmospheric synthesizers. It stands as a brave, experimental, and heavily Pink Floyd-indebted pivot in his acclaimed catalog.
