…in between two things, LP: PADDLEFISH – Flyer [Matt Dewine, producer]

Paddlefish – Flyer LP is available at Bandcamp.

If you find your soul sonically linked to the era when Dinosaur Jr, Lemonheads, and Sparklehorse ruled your cassette player, then Chicago-based Paddlefish’s new 8-track stunner, ‘Flyer’, is going to move you. A biographical set that songwriter Owen Misterovich explains, “[It’s about] being a kid and feeling like you’re in between two things…you’re maybe not a kid anymore, you’re getting older, but you’re not an adult yet.”

FLYER

Good As Dead
Drain-All
Enough
Built a Glider
The Web
Small Song
Turnpike
Oh Doctor

While each episodic track is heartfelt and standalone moments in time, at first listen or so, this set should be played in order to witness the memories of disenchantment and coming-to-terms-with play out. And you can hear the album, produced by Matt Dewine, below as well as watch a film for opening track “Good As Dead”.
