| Album Description: |
An odd little collection from an odd little misfit. Brooding introspection, wry humor, sadness, hope, and general weirdness. Lyrically dense. Vocally layered. Pulling stylistically from a variety of musical influences (classic 60s, 70s, & 80s pop, jazz, prog rock, rock rock, electronic, folk, standards, experimental, show tunes) with a concise sense of melody. This is the first of Flipping The Pig's albums to contain no electric guitars and no bass guitar (mostly because they weren't plugged in). |
