Our Take

The Brian Jonestown Massacre's latest release, "Tepid Peppermint Vol. 2," is a psychedelic journey through the mind of frontman Anton Newcombe... and what a wild ride it is. The album opens with the hauntingly beautiful track "Drained," a slow-burning ballad that sets the tone for the rest of the record.

As we delve deeper into the album, we are met with a smorgasbord of sonic delights. From the trippy guitar riffs of "Felt Tipped Pictures of UFOs" to the dreamy vocals of "Novocaine," each track on "Tepid Peppermint Vol. 2" is a unique and mesmerizing experience.

Newcombe's songwriting is both poetic and profound, touching on themes of love, loss, and existential dread. His lyrics are complemented by the band's lush instrumentation, creating a sound that is at once ethereal and raw.

However, "Tepid Peppermint Vol. 2" is not without its faults. At times, the album can feel a bit meandering, with some tracks overstaying their welcome. But for the most part, the Brian Jonestown Massacre has crafted a stunning piece of work that is sure to captivate fans old and new.

In conclusion, "Tepid Peppermint Vol. 2" is a mesmerizing journey through the twisted mind of Anton Newcombe. With its dreamy soundscapes and poetic lyrics, this album is a must-listen for any fan of psychedelic rock. Pitchfork rating: 8.0
