Mostly acoustic, folky one from SFs favorite garage-psych son (now relocated to his hometown of LA). A big shift from his electric stuff, written largely in response to some upheaval in his personal life; a logical follow-up from Goodbye Bread, if he hadn't released so much since then. Still buzzy, still owing a lot to the classics, and still great stuff; if this doesn't jive with some fans of his louder 2012 work it will find at least as many fans elsewhere (on the indie/deep cut 60s/70s shows). No FCCs detected.

RIYL: T Rex, folky Bowie, White Fence, John Lennon

1 (3:55) Quiet intro, sad, mid-slow, minor-key, buzzy despite being only acoustic
2 (3:43) Shaky vox, impending doom vibe, a few disillusioned psychy touches
*3 (2:29) Sparse, just acoustic guitar and Ty, lots of falsetto and strumming
4 (3:18) Desert blues; guitar and reverbed vox, with a screaming electric solo at the end
5 (3:50) Lo-fi sad 60s folk rock inspired by Spector et al (strings), lyrics invoke a funeral, Beatlesque
6 (4:34) Another psych-folk number, fast beat+guitar behind slow, fuzzed out vox
7 (2:56) Bluesy guitar, you'd expect a harmonica but get guitar being played like a mandolin or banjo; semi-falsetto vox
8 (3:37) Guitars both plucky and buzzy, Lennony vox,
*9 (4:22) Slurred out druggy, echoing plod, builds before culminating in a loud, noisy outro
**10 (3:16) Top-notch folk-rock; great guitar work, lyrics re: personal lack of direction, light reverb; riffs/pop factor kick up in second half
