The Jeff Tobin Death Folk
Six songs of rainy day pain killer poppin' suicide theme music. Death Folk transcends genres by encompassing everything from science fiction guitar epics (Fall of the Robots), moody layered instrumentals (Anger Management, Thank You Nurse), and well...space rock (It Finally Rained). Recorded in May at Jeff's home studio, Death Folk is a bit mellow compared to his previous work with Bloody Holly and Seattle underground legends SleepCapsule. So, If you're expecting the screaming, incoherent mayhem of his earlier work you may seek out his first solo release We're Both Dead And You Know It. If you want a fresh dose of depression pick up Death Folk and catch Jeff live as he magically layers guitar parts over introspective lyrics about robots, toilets and gardening. A 1999 finalist in the Jimi Hendrix Guitar Competition, Tobin continues to mangle contemporary music as we know it. The Cure meets Frank Zappa meets a melted crayon. Load up the bong and sink into the quicksand that is Death Folk. Each cd is hand numbered and features art from the megalomaniac Jeff Tobin.
