Canada, 2020, chamber folk / art pop / singer-songwriter

The first track is so minimal, with such long spaces of silence, that I’m sure more than one person was like “what is this? Is the file broken?” I like him starting an album that way, though; starting with a track that sounds like it’d be an interlude somewhere in the middle. Quite a confessional album, talking about such intensely personal things as his sleep patterns, his specific anxieties, his musings on gender roles both in mythology and in the modern world. Basically, a very 21st-century album. The soothing beauty of the violin- and synth-driven music belies the confused, unsettling lyrics.
But does he look like Poseidon in this light?
