Knock Knock LP

Smog's "Knock Knock" resurfaces with a disarming blend of haunting arrangements juxtaposed against candid lyrics. There's a cheeky contradiction in Bill Callahan's vibrant production that draws attention, especially in tracks like "Held" and "Cold Blooded Old Times," where sincerity mingles awkwardly with a surreal touch. This isn't mere reflection; it's an invitation to confront the unsettling heart of indie folk's allure, splayed bare in every note.
