Jordaan Mason and the Horse Museum - “Divorce Lawyers I Shaved My Head” - Buy It

text: Daniel Couch

Divorce Lawyers I Shaved My Head cross pollinates non sequitor and synecdoche to give birth to a stunningly sensual album.  Horns groan and whine, accordions wheeze and singing saws tremble along as Maason‘s droning corporeal narratives of confusion and exploration leave the listener hungry and groping for more.

Reminds us of: The Microphones | Neutral Milk Hotel | puberty

“Mindkilla” is awesome. I’ve got this music video last week and really impressed through watching every performance particularly “Glass Jar”. Thanks dude. :)
