Every so often you
come across a release that just hits a bit different, one that taps into
a base emotion that you didn't know needed to be adressed.
40
Watt Sun does exactly that with Perfect Light. This album deeply evokes a
feeling of veunerability, lonliness, and emotional nakedness. This is
raw emotion, pure and simple.
Most of this emotion is conveyed
thorugh the powerful voice of Patrick Walker, the sole member of the
project at the time of recording. His vibrato/quiver in his voice that
resonates with me, and it moves me deeply. This is just a dude with a
guitar on a rainy night sharing his heart with a bunch of strangers over
a cold glass of whiskey.
This album hits as hard the tenth time
its spun as much as the first time. Sometimes you need something to hit
hard - an album that just causes you to slow down - pause life - take
that glass of whiskey out and just listen.
