The trio have crafted three albums of psych-pop perfection, last leaving us with 2014's \"Africa Avenue\". They return in fine form with their fourth magnum opus, entitled \"Chew\". Having been lifelong fans of psychedelia \u0026amp; prog rock, They've found a way to straddle four decades of music. Rather than committing the cardinal sin of many modern acts by drenching everything in reverb, \"Chew\" revels in clarity \u0026amp; melody - the listener finds themselves disoriented by the jarring juxtaposition of styles, rather than gimmicky studio trickery. This was purposeful, as the band wanted \"Chew\" to seem like criss-crossing AM radio broadcasts. Melodic psych-pop drifts up against crunchy, progressive riffs and good ol' steel-guitar driven country rock, but it all works. The album's centerpiece \"Dama de Lavanda\" is perhaps their most accomplished composition to date, with it's breezy latin rhythms - it swings with an assuredness unseen from the band as yet. Horns \u0026amp; flutes pepper the mix, but it's the Bacharach-meets-Pretty Things outro that really hits a home run. The obvious peak of an album crackling with ideas \u0026amp; creativity. \"Chew\" was recorded by the band in bassist Peter Stringer-Hye's garage studio in Nashville \u0026amp; mixed by Cooper Crain (Bitchin' Bajas, Cave) at Chicago's Minbal Studios. \"Chew\" is released on compact disc \u0026amp; black vinyl, and includes a download code.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"598","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50566313836840,"sku":"63012598379","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/paperhead-chew-blk-vinyl-lp-63012598379","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
