    He could be a genius or he could be a lunatic; either way, one of modern filmdom's most debated and alluring figures has made an arresting album that successfully translates his visual surrealism to a new medium.

    Yes, it sounds like you're now entering Bluejam, but Lynch discovered the place, and instead of quitting cinema to make an album that's being called his debut, it sounds more like he's coming home.

    Although this is his first foray proper into the medium of electronic music, it's a masterful accomplishment.

    Everywhere, tremolo guitars twang, and slow, compressed drums beat out the rhythm of disquietude. [Dec. 2011 p. 99]

  1. This a a trippy but sort of poppy album that's just kind of weird to listen to. Sometimes I really liked and other times I was thinking, "What's up with this song?" This is something you have to listen to as a whole because just one song by itself feels very disconnected. Expand

    David Lynch I love your films. I love the fact that after many years of dedication to other musicians (Julee Cruise, Crysta Bell {This Train.. wow.. just plain wow}) and incredible input to your film scores you've dared to make your own album and make it completely "your own", totally unique and with it's own sound. Does it work Sorta kinda.. Expand
