Psychedelic folk is slowly becoming my favorite form of folk music and it makes sense why; the avant-nature of the guitar work, the usual rich and thick ambiance that backs the guitar, and the usually hypnotic drums, fills, or synths/drones. On this brand new album from Cory Hanson, he creates a dense, sophisticated, and yet light, and airy folk record drenched in psychedelia, ambient, and rock underpinnings that help you vibe out for the short run time. Although the interludes are a bit questioning (some fairly dark ambient passages) the overall ideas and moods of this record are nearly flawless. The album truly builds to its conclusion on ?Another Story from the Center of the Earth? which is a folk-rock ballad with the most incredible guitar solo that sounds both enchanting and elusive. A great little record with some great playing and production.
