Skyway Man - The World Only Ends When You Die, album review


Lite Existential

Cosmic country / psyche folk are two terms that go some way to explaining the musical leanings of these brightly constructed ruminations on death and other paradoxically 'serious' explorations. The lyrics convey a richly creative individualism,

 

and the song structures are cleverly constructed, at times with sampling and orchestrations as with The Rise of the Integratron. And there is positive cheer in a title and urge Don't Feel Bad About Being Alive, when 'This is not the same stoic death from the River Styx' hooked to a rock'n'roll set-piece.

Enjoyable originality. Get it here.
