Cedarsmoke
The Great & The Terrible
聞き逃し
2023.7月リリース
恐らく、E Street Band(Bruce Springsteen)を
意識したつくりだと思うが、
切ない甘酸っぱい感じが非常に良い。
Voの声質は全然違うが、
兄貴から、シャウトを抜き取ったような
サウンドの作り。
Counting Crows あたりも思い出した。

The Brisbane-based group Cedarsmoke is the vehicle via which Jon Cloumassis releases music. Cedarsmoke’s second album is an exploration of change in all its forms, with references to the Wizard Of Oz woven throughout the record, in fact “Oz The Great & The Terrible”, which was how the character was also known, provides the record’s title. In addition, the cover features a yellow brick road leading to an emerald city, which is also the unofficial name sometimes given to Sydney.
Cloumassis’s aim was to release a more acoustic and cohesive LP than his debut. On this record he played everything on each of the 12 songs, except the drums. Before making the album Cloumassis spent a lot of time listening to early Bruce Springsteen. This is reflected in the first track, ‘For Real‘, which is a homage to Springsteen’s ‘Thunder Road‘, as the piano and guitar riffs demonstrate.
