    These climactic moments of “High Castle,” and the others like it on the record, are a kind of triumph of Forsyth’s musical grammar, too: the efficiency of communication, the transmission of feeling via the blunt physicality of sound.

    The Rarity of Experience is another brilliant turn for Forsyth with the Solar Motel Band, but what makes it truly remarkable--and one of the finest guitar-driven records of this young 2016--is that it also feels like a new start.

    As a guitarist, Forsyth has a clear and immediately identifiable voice. His tones and melodies are familiar yet fresh, at once embodying grace and freakiness, tradition and experimentation, the past and the present.
