Oddleaf’s debut album, Where Ideal and Denial Collide , is a fresh entry in progressive rock, combining lush, symphonic elements with retro influences from bands like Camel and Renaissance. The album, produced and recorded with exceptional attention to sonic detail, explores themes of environmentalism and human disconnection from nature, creating a rich narrative across its six tracks.
