Review
‘Smokey Rolls Down Thunder Canyon’ is the fourth solo album of ‘Freak Folk’ Devendra Banhart. And it gets as freaky as possible: lyrics in various languages, several kinds of different instruments, psychedelic melodies, … . You hear a lot of influences, for instance of Latin music and of 60’s music. Although he integrates a lot of different ‘gimmicks’, his songs do sound quite calm and mellow. A lot of emotion goes underneath a big load of weirdness, but in the end, all these things don’t cover up for the easily forgettable melodies. Seahorse is the best song on this album in my opinion. Have fun with the album!

My favorite song: 4. Seahorse, 9. Rosa
