Tip of the sphere

"On his ninth album, the reserved bandleader incorporates more classic rock references than usual, but they're the frames for subtleties and surprises within".

"Tip of the Sphere arrives three years after singer/songwriter Cass McCombs' first Top 40 independent album, 2016's Mangy Love. Definitely not shooting for the charts here - not that he ever was -- the album places McCombs' often sharp, sometimes meandering or halted ruminations in a context of a cosmic folk with sleepy '70s album rock inspirations".

"An enigma wrapped in a wayfarer ... (Anti-)California maverick Cass McCombs evolves from gnomic troubadour to musical seeker of truth on his engrossing ninth studio album".

"Den amerikanske sangskriver Cass McCombs anvender knap så slagkraftige virkemidler, men hans plader, der bygger på både rock, folk, country og punk, er svært anbefalelsesværdige. Hans niende studiealbum - aktuelle 'Tip Of The Sphere' - består af fængende sange og spændende produktion. Nye lyttere kan med fordel hoppe på her".
