Current Joys - Voyager (2021) Hi Res

Current joys - The project of Nick rattigan - announces signing to Secretly Canadian for its seventh album, Voyager, to be released may 14th, and shares the first single/video, "amateur." Voyager rattle with the live-wire feeling that's thrummed through all of rattigan's previous releases: quavering, scream-itself-hoarse vocals and self-interrogation via song. But here, that bristling, sentimental rock 'n' Roll cacophony is overlaid with a soundtrack orchestra guiding it along. It's an odyssey, a grand-sounding journey of self-discovery spread across sixteen tracks. Part ekphrasis, part personal, it's rattigan learning new ways to understand his own feelings and identity while inspired by the highly-stylized, striking storytelling of filmmakers like Alfred hitchcock, Lars von trier, Terrence malick, Agnes varda, and Andrei Tarkovsky.
