Our Take

Ah, Tom Rodwell's latest offering, "Wood & Waste," is a delightful mishmash of sound and texture that defies traditional genre labels.

From the moment you press play, you are hit with a cacophony of wooden instruments clashing against a backdrop of industrial waste - it’s like a surreal trip through a musical junkyard. Rodwell's distinctive voice cuts through the chaos, taking you on a journey through his twisted and eccentric world.

The album is a masterclass in experimental folk, with Rodwell's unconventional approach to songwriting shining through on every track. Each song is a strange and wonderful concoction of blues, punk, and avant-garde influences, all held together by Rodwell's undeniable charm.

Standout tracks include the haunting “Splintered Dream” and the raucous “Scrapyard Blues,” which showcase Rodwell's versatility as a musician and a storyteller. The production on the album is raw and unpolished, adding to the album's gritty and authentic feel.

"Wood & Waste" is a wild ride from start to finish, and while it may not be for everyone, those willing to take a chance on Tom Rodwell will be rewarded with a truly unique listening experience. So go ahead, dive into the sonic wasteland that is "Wood & Waste" - you won't regret it.
