Ad Hoc

Joel Marquard's (Dear and the Headlights, Gospel Claws, Through and Through Gospel Review) previous projects have always been special, but his latest musical project/band Spiritual Warfare and the Greasy Shadows unites a lifetime of music creation in a cross-genre sound unlike most mainstream fare. Eclectic influences including golden era Bollywood, exotica, oldies, punk, and beyond take over on his most recent album. Ad Hoc is the second album by the band, and from the opening guttural wail in the first track Take It Over , it is evident that unpredictability is a theme. Sinister choir backs the evoking a spaghetti western with our hero in peril.
