Can I Get a Pack of Camel Lights?
['Zach Schonfeld']
Pitchfork
Fortunately, Geologist, née Brian Weitz, is not a pop-minded artist.
0.0Until now, Geologist was also the only Animal Collective member without a proper solo album to his name.
That changes with Can I Get a Pack of Camel Lights?, an odd, pleasingly unclassifiable instrumental record that was inspired, bizarrely enough, by a hurdy-gurdy performance he saw Keiji Haino play 28 years ago.
As a demonstration of the hurdy-gurdy’s tonal range, Can I Get a Pack of Camel Lights?
“RV Envy” goes full jazz-funk freakout, with mangled synths that honk like angry geese and a hurdy-gurdy tone as distorted and charred as Miles Davis’s trumpet circa 1972.
