Tyler Childers - Snipe Hunter (2025)


“Snipe Hunter” is Childers’s boldest and most genre-spanning project to date. Produced by Rick Rubin with contributions from Nick Sanborn, it’s a kaleidoscopic collection that fuses garage-rock energy, gospel choruses, psychedelic textures, and global spiritual influences. Opener “Eatin’ Big Time” kicks things off with raucous abandon, while haunting ballads like “Oneida” and fan-favorite “Nose on the Grindstone” ground the album in emotional sincerity. Tracks such as “Tirtha Yatra” and “Down Under” highlight his curiosity and humor—from exploring Hindu pilgrimage to joking about koala STDs. Critics broadly acclaim its fearless ambition and depth, calling it a career-defining moment for a storyteller unafraid to wander.

Oddleaf - Where Ideal and Denial Collide (2024)

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. Musically, the album mixes haunting flute lines, Mellotron textures, and dynamic shifts between electric and acoustic instrumentation, with standout vocals from Adeline Gurtner that are both emotive and ethereal. Tracks like “Life” and “Back in Time” balance infectious, vintage-inspired melodies with introspective lyrics, giving the album a timeless yet urgent feel. This blend of pastoral and dark themes marks Where Ideal and Denial Collide as a promising and inventive contribution to the prog scene​ The PROG Mind   Prog Rock Central   Prog Rock Central .
