Tender and angry, lovely and dissonant, frenetic and serene, dense and solitary: Andrew Johnson, frontman for groundbreaking bands H. Chinaski and Happy, has created a solo album that oscillates between extremes yet maintains a coherence and vision.

Think Nick Drake, think Neutral Milk Hotel, think Elliot Smith. Out April 25
