Our Take

Ah, Damien Jurado, the bearded bard of indie folk. His latest offering, "The Horizon Just Laughed", is a dreamy journey through the musings of a man who's seen it all. From the first strum of the guitar on "Allocate", you know you're in for a treat.

Jurado's haunting vocals float over intricate melodies, like a whisper in the wind. The lyrics are introspective and raw, exploring themes of love, loss, and the vastness of the universe. This is not your typical cookie-cutter pop album, this is artistry at its finest.

Tracks like "Percy Faith" and "Over Rainbows and Rainier" showcase Jurado's ability to paint vivid images with his words, transporting the listener to another world. The instrumentation is lush and layered, creating a soundscape that is both timeless and modern.

But let's not forget the title track, "The Horizon Just Laughed". This song is a standout, with its haunting melody and poignant lyrics. It's a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is always a glimmer of hope.

Overall, "The Horizon Just Laughed" is a masterpiece from start to finish. Damien Jurado has once again proven why he is a force to be reckoned with in the music industry. So sit back, relax, and let the enchanting sounds of Jurado wash over you. You won't be disappointed.

About the artist

Damien Jurado

Unraveling the enigma that is Damien Jurado is no easy feat. This Seattle-based singer-songwriter has been quietly working his magic on the indie folk scene for over two decades, leaving a trail of haunting melodies and heart-wrenching lyrics in his wake. Jurado first burst onto the scene in the late '90s, with his debut album "Waters Ave S." showcasing his ability to craft raw, emotionally charged songs that cut straight to the bone. Since then, he has released over a dozen albums, each one a masterclass in storytelling and sonic experimentation. His latest offering, "What's New, Tomboy?", sees Jurado taking a more stripped-back approach, opting for sparse arrangements and intimate vocals that draw the listener in, like a moth to a flame. But don't be fooled by the gentle exterior - beneath the surface lies a complex web of ideas and emotions, waiting to be unravelled. Jurado's live performances are a sight to behold, with his soulful voice and magnetic stage presence captivating audiences around the world. Whether he's playing to a packed stadium or a tiny dive bar, Jurado brings a sense of intimacy and vulnerability to every show, leaving fans spellbound. In a world oversaturated with cookie-cutter pop stars and soulless chart-toppers, Damien Jurado is a breath of fresh air - a true artist who is unafraid to bare his soul and lay it all on the line. So if you're looking for music that's raw, honest, and above all, real, look no further than the one and only Damien Jurado.
