Our Take

Ah, the latest offering from the enigmatic Linear John, "Double Parade." This album is a veritable smorgasbord of musical styles, with influences ranging from jazz to funk to indie rock. It's like a musical buffet, and the flavors are weirdly complementary.

From the opening track, "Funky Monkey," you know you're in for a wild ride. The funky bass lines and off-kilter rhythms set the stage for what's to come. Linear John's vocals are a mix of soulful crooning and playful scatting, making for a truly unique listening experience.

But it's not all fun and games on "Double Parade." Tracks like "Melancholy Blues" and "Broken Hearts Club" delve into deeper emotional territory, showcasing Linear John's versatility as a songwriter. The lyrics are introspective and thought-provoking, touching on themes of love, loss, and redemption.

Overall, "Double Parade" is a triumph of eclecticism. Linear John has created a musical kaleidoscope that is both playful and profound, quirky and profound. It's the kind of album that keeps you coming back for more, each listen revealing new layers of depth and nuance. So grab your dancing shoes and your thinking cap, because "Double Parade" is a ride you won't want to miss.
