Novak, Jeffrey

Blood Celebration

The 2024 album from Jeffrey Novak heralds a return to the solo psych boogie that broke him out of Cheap Time's punk sweat n' swagger. The acoustic guitar remains the focal point here, but if you think this is Novak gone folk, get the notion far from your mind. Rolling its instincts through the Bolan-boogie and burnt end blues that fueled prime period Ty Segall and running wild through the American canon, the record picks at Petty and Spence and dips into the stewed songwriting that turned Nashville into a nexus of country, soul, R&B and rock. A few times a specter of spaced Brit-pop pops into the mix as well, with opener 'Lucyville' and 'Jaybird' nipping at territory traced by The Charlatans and The Telescopes.
