Bartees Strange has returned with his latest album, entitled Horror. The ultra-talented multi-instrumentalist, producer and songwriter maps out an intricate collection of songs that showcase the depths he’s willing to go to tell a vivid story about his life and set the course for where he plans to go next in his sound. The press release shared that, “His family used scary stories to teach life lessons, and at an early age, Strange started using scary movies to practice being strong. The world can be a terrifying place, and for a young, queer, black person in rural America, that terror can be visceral. Horror is an album about facing those fears and growing to become someone to be feared.” It’s a gripping description of the state of mind that Bartees Strange used to craft his latest studio effort that encapsulates the horror of living in our ever-changing world. Bartees Strange takes the listener on a thrilling ride over an album that is both cohesive and moves the needle closer to a fully-realized vision for his music.
