Eternally Even, by Jim James

The frontman for the critically acclaimed, Kentucky-bred My Morning Jacket breaks out on the second of his solo albums, this being TA’s personal favorite. Described by one reviewer as possessing a “frayed, psychedelic-soul aesthetic”, James pairs haunting synth-heavy backgrounds with muddily-enunciated social commentary and an undeniably soul groove to produce an alt-rock sound that makes you almost want to dance and think in the corner by yourself.
