Well, golly. I don't know if this is the official Bandcamp thread or not. And of course I released the new Church of Hed album, The Father Road last week! Hahaha.
Nevertheless, here we are.
Church of Hed’s new double album, The Father Road, takes us on a surreal aural journey across the United States along the Lincoln Highway, the first transcontinental road built for automobiles. It’s effectively the sequel to the band’s 2011 album, Rivers of Asphalt, which traveled the legendary Route 66. The music shifts and evolves in tandem with the scenic backdrop of America from San Francisco to New York City. As with the original release, the sense of a lost era lurks throughout the album.
The music within features Church of Hed’s unique mix of spacerock, psychedelia, prog rock, krautrock, and electronic music. It channels diverse influences, ranging from CAN, Cluster, Brian Eno, and Hawkwind, to YES and The Flaming Lips, in addition to Glass, Reich, and Riley. In the end, it always manages to sound predominately like Church of Hed. Of course, Kraftwerk provided the original concept of combining electronic music with a transportation corridor!
The band’s Paul Williams composed, performed, and produced The Father Road with help from Quarkspace guitarist, Stan Lyon, on bass and guitar. Williams plays an array of synthesizers, keyboards, and electric drums. Surreal ambience highlights the western portion of the highway, while more lyrical instrumental pieces aurally describe the more populated sections of this old road. Check out the expanded liner notes at:http://churchofhed.com/releases/chur...e-father-road/
Released both on CD and digitally, The Father Road is available on CD or download from Bandcamp, download-only from iTunes and Amazon, etc., as well as the usual streaming services, such as Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube, etc. Never forget to support independent music!

Reminder that Bandcamp Friday is right now!
I have some catching up to do, so I bought various albums I’ve already been listening to. black midi, BCNR, Shamblemaths, Hausswolff, Bubblemath, Cheer-Accident, Cardiacs, Dry Cleaning etc. Immediately after the purchase, Bandcamp popped up with “Ian also bought Monster Master”. I had a pretty good idea which Ian this was. 😀

Yes! It's another Bandcamp Friday! So consider supporting us with a CD or download purchase of the new Church of Hed album, The Father Road! Of course, the entire Eternity's Jest Records catalog is on Bandcamp and available for you. Quarkspace, Natty Steam and the HED bring that psychedelic mashup of spacerock, prog rock, and electronica. Trippy synths abound! Quarkspace's Spacefolds 5 is quite lonely, so pick that one up. It's arguably the most underrated album in our canon! Enjoy the day and support indie music! Peace!
