For many, the past couple of years have been pretty garbage, in a lot of ways.Nate Wilde · Dec 13, 2022MusicAlbum Review: Jellyfish Farm – JellyfishProgressive rock is certainly its own multi-tentacled beast. Its key characteristics align with virtuosic musicianship and a sort of refined taste which, as with caviar or any stereotype, can lend itself to negative connotations. But the debut release from Colorado’s Jellyfish Farm could not be further from any preconceived notion of “stuffy” progressive rock. Rather, it’s a delightful and abstract breath of fresh air for not only the state’s local music scene, but modern prog as a whole.Nate Wilde · Nov 10, 2022MusicAlbum Review: Logan Farmer – A Mold For The BellFollowing in the Soft-Croon tradition of fellow Colorado folkers Covenhoven and Gregory Alan Isakov, Fort Collins’ Farmer paints with a palette of little more than acoustic guitar and vocal. But a flutter of woodwind textures, flecks of orchestral harp and thoughtful string arrangements elevate the album’s eight songs to a 10. Fans of Bon Iver will love A Mold For The Bell, but expect a few unique brush strokes in this impressionist piece, namely, the pointed, trembling timbre of Farmer’s vocal: It’s hushed and rife with vibrato yet convinced with a determined grit.Kevin Johnston · Nov 9, 2022MusicAlbum Review: Draghoria – Dangerous SpeciesNate Wilde · Sep 2, 2022MusicAlbum Review: People in General – friendsPeople in General are making the leap.
