Number 17

An album that jumped into the Top 20 thanks to those final lists that were sent during the final night and on the final morning before the final deadline passed. Jumping enough to settle 20 points above those three we found on Number 18. A band that many voted for and many lists featured it high on their list; but as mentioned before the Number 15 to 40 are all pretty close together in comparison to what comes later and before. So anyway, those last few lists, made it reach the Top 20… Their 2018 record got spun to an incredibly degree over here and the new one just improves on every aspect of that record. With eastern and world influences their psychedelic folk rock often leaves you breathless and giddy with joy; that in a world that seems to be burning at both ends, a release like this can be so uplifting and delightful. The melancholy that might be present on a track or two gets powered over by those sixties and seventies inspired grooves, the wide open atmosphere and that bright shimmering light at the end of the tunnel. No more tea for me please, just put this record on as pick me up and feel the warmth blow away all that negative energy and that cold winter spirit… And by sheer coincidence (cause that is how the Great Magnet rolls) the honorable JJ Koczan put up a review of the album on The Obelisk this very day… On Number 17 we find!
