Lael Neale’s minimalist drone pop draws inspiration from the Transcendentalists, the alienation of modern life, and a rich array of musical influences—ranging from Dionne Warwick and John Lennon to primitive American gospel and Spacemen 3. Her expansive new record, Altogether Stranger, due May 2, was written and recorded in the early morning quiet of Los Angeles. Clocking in at just 32 minutes, the 9-song LP covers an unexpected breadth of musical and lyrical terrain—from garage rock nursery rhymes and creation myths to Motorik dance dirges and solitary Omnichord meditations. A brilliant lyricist, Neale has a unique ability to uncover the extraordinary within the mundane, tackling themes of polarity that recur throughout her work—country vs. city, humanity vs. technology, isolation vs. society. This album is her third collaboration with producer Guy Blakeslee who helps expand the tonal palette while staying true to Neale’s commitment to the raw immediacy and hand-made intimacy of home recording.EXTRAVISION is a deeply therapeutic analog offering from experimental guitarist Guy Blakeslee. Healing music, New Age tape music, ambient soundscape, Satie on acid, music for psychedelic therapy, an extraterrestrial film score … call it what you will; Blakeslee considers it “channeled material” sent through him from other, parallel dimensions.
“His allegiance isn’t to genre but to the pursuit of artistic liberation through psychedelia” - the New Yorker
