Hudson Bell - When The Sun Is The Moon [CD]

Pop at heart, "When the Sun Is the Moon" gets swallowed in swirls of distortion and dense guitar solos and binges. On par with guitar benders Neil Young and Doug Martsch, Hudson Bell's guitars change densities, get lost, spiral, then return. Yet, even under the eruptions of fuzz and mounds of pedal tapping, there are epic pop songs. Tracks filled with sincere lyricism and unavoidable melodies. This record is grand on all measures, filled with contagious jams and monstrous guitar hooks.
