Our Take

In a musical landscape overrun with copycats and trend followers, "Various Artists: There Is A Man Upon The Farm" dares to break the mould with its eclectic mix of sounds and styles. From the haunting, ethereal vocals on "Barnyard Boogie" to the experimental electronica of "Sheep Shuffle," this album takes listeners on a sonic journey through the farmlands of music.

The standout track, "Cow Cacophony," is a cacophonous blend of mooing, clucking, and neighing that somehow manages to be both chaotic and strangely mesmerizing. It's a truly farm-tastic experience that must be heard to be believed.

While some may find the playful, barnyard-inspired lyrics a bit on the nose, there's no denying the musicianship and creativity on display here. Each track is a testament to the power of musical collaboration and the boundless possibilities of the human imagination.

So, put on your favorite pair of overalls, grab a pitchfork, and prepare to be whisked away to a musical world unlike any other. "Various Artists: There Is A Man Upon The Farm" is a barnstorming triumph that is sure to delight and surprise even the most jaded of listeners. Who knew that the sounds of the farm could be so darn catchy?

Overall, this album is a must-listen for anyone looking to take a break from the ordinary and embrace the weird and wonderful world of farm-inspired music. So, grab your cowboy hat and get ready to boogie down on the farm with "Various Artists: There Is A Man Upon The Farm." Pitchfork gives it a solid 8/10.
