3.5 great | TheManMachine | December 14th 16 | Just so happened that my introductory listen was on the gray-n-hazy morning after Election Day -- and despite personally possessing no particular political affiliation nor detecting any surety on the subject from Seretan, revved up mantras like "you came and took my blues away" and "I'm getting out" couldn't help but resonate, a legitimate "I'm so happy I could cry" went and turned sardonic, his synthesis of serene+sensitive folkie and trebly guitar mangler expressing a felicitous fusion of pensiveness for the past and warranted turbulence-bursts. But his aforementioned could-cry delight and shameless squeakiness scores one for purity, hope, and built-up combustions: his blues actually DID get taken away, he thanks his lucky stars for his family loud-n-proud, he quivers with flowers and pianos over visions of you on the water, "Cottonwood Tree" is a true-blue indie-slop classic in 2016. And just when you thought it was gettin' too pretty: "Put a cigarette out in the eye of bad vibes", from the one entitled "Blood in the Muzzle".
