- Description: Baby Man, the new album by Fruit Bats, is like nothing else in Grammy-nominated songwriter Eric D. Johnson's catalog. Little in the arc of his career-including Fruit Bats' evolution from home recording project to rollicking roadshow, his solo output, and his work with Bonny Light Horseman-points the way to this album, in which his only accompaniment, aside from the occasional blush of synthesizer, is a guitar, banjo, or piano. Save for producer Thom Monahan, reuniting with Johnson for the first time since Fruit Bats' 2019 breakthrough Gold Past Life, it's just Johnson in the room, meaning that when the turntable's needle meets Baby Man's groove, it's just him and the listener, mutually in for a reckoning. Monahan's return to the booth was vital having mapped the outer limits of Eric D. Johnson's musical imagination, nobody was better equipped for the deepest trip yet into his soul. Baby Man is an intimate album, but rather than deliver a stripped-down or back-to-basics approach to the Fruit Bats sound, it's introspection is rendered at epic scale. InchIt's minimalist-maximalism,Inch Johnson says of his and Monahan's approach. InchThere are fewer tracks on each song-four or five at most compared to recent albums where there'd maybe be five tracks on a song just for synths-but this is me at my most hi-fi.Inch What he and Monahan do to striking effect on Baby Man is explore the full power and range of his voice.

Around the Fur the follow-up to Deftones' passionate, aggressive Adrenaline, sees the California quartet expanding on the sheer rage of their earlier work, adding new, more sinister shades to their already extreme sound. The opening InchMy Own Summer (Shove It),Inch serves as an introduction to the album's sonic theme sinewy guitars and eerie whispers alternate with fast, violent crunch. Sepultura's Max Cavallero contributes guitar and vocals to InchHeadup,Inch while InchMXInch finds singer Chino trading off vocal lines with Annalynn Cunningham, (wife of Deftones' drummer Abe) in an acerbic take on the rock star mentality. Vocal acrobat Moreno attacks a variety of styles his breathy, psychotic recitations sound downright industrial, while the album's calmer, more brooding moments show his gift for haunting melody. Behind him, guitarist Stephen Carpenter's heavy wall of sound is astoundingly muscular, yet inspiringly agile. When Deftones' hellish fury hits full tilt, as it always does on this album, Moreno's voice erupts into screams which are best described as otherworldly, transforming this intense musical firestorm into a hurtling juggernaut of aggression. This LP version comes pressed on 180 gram vinyl. Album Tracks 1. My Own Summer (Shove It) 2. Lhabia 3. Mascara 4. Around the Fur 5. Rickets 6. Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away) 7. Lotion 8.
