Jimi Beavis – Post-Apocalyptic Love Songs
Originally published on Alt Media
Throughout the 12-track offering on Jimi Beavis’ new album the listener is presented with a tasty morsel that has a sweet, crisp coating but a gooey, dark and dirty interior.
Upon first listen the harmonica, guitar and harmonies stand out as they delve into Beavis’ blues, funk and Americana roots. It’s not until later listens that the dark, brooding soulful melodies and stories begin to reveal themselves.
This is a really nice offering of songs that develops with multiple listens as it explores stories of love, loss, death and helplessness. Unfortunately though the record does lose a little steam towards the end, which may deter some from undertaking those necessary second, third and fourth listens.
