Feb 8, 2019The elusive details in the songs here are what bring me back, haunted.
-
Feb 11, 2019Nine records and counting, McCombs is as magnetic and unmistakable as ever.
-
Feb 11, 2019Tip of the Sphere again rejects easy definitions and expectations, growing and surprising with every listen.
-
Feb 8, 2019In the face of so much uncertainty, it’s tempting to think that armageddon is the only answer. Whilst not standing toe-to-toe with the very best of McComb’s discography, Tip of the Sphere is as good a soundtrack to The End Times as anything he’s done.
-
Feb 19, 2019Despite its front-loaded tracklist and one song that sonically doesn’t fit (“American Canyon Sutra”), Tip of The Sphere is great for both the casually-interested listener or the seasoned listener looking for something to slowly melt into and later pick apart.
-
Feb 8, 2019It’s deceptively chill music that, like most of McCombs work, honors the past while steeling itself for the future.
-
Feb 5, 2019This album is a black-belt in terms of song writing and instrumentation... but when McCombs’ lyrics can’t match up, Tip Of The Sphere sounds like it’s limping.
