JASON LYTLE Yours Truly The Commuter (2009 Japanese 13-track promotional sample CD album, including the Japanese exclusive bonus track The Wether Girl picture sleeve booklet, obi-strip & sample stickered back insert. After 15 years at the helm of Grandaddy, Jason Lytle returns with a new collection of songs that are at once a continuation of and elaboration on the musical and lyrical ideas he explored in that band. The title - tells it all: songs about the treks we all make,from one state to another, from inner lives to outer, and the tolls those travels take. Musically, the dreamy soundscapes mirror the dramatic environment of Lytle's newly-adopted Montana, where the record was written and recorded, while the twang of central California farmland remains in the inflection and phrasings of the Modesto native's unmistakable voice. Electronic flourishes collide with acoustic guitars and soulful piano parts, recreating Lytle's signature electro-lo-fi atmospheres - highly recommended! EICP1264)
