Title

Former MMOSS front-man Massachusetts songwriter Doug Tuttle returns with his third solo album, Peace Potato, once again on Chicago label Trouble In Mind Records. His 2013 solo debut (after fronting his longtime psychedelic band, MMOSS) was an insular and foggy psychedelic masterpiece punctuated by Tuttle’s stinging guitar leads, accented by flashes of bedroom Fairport / Crazy Horse brilliance, towing the line nibly between elegance and ragged assurance. Peace Potato introduces itself with the horn-laden, honeydripper, Bait The Sun, a classic Tuttle tune; downer pop melodies colouring a hypnagogic landscape. It is indeed that state of lucid dreaming, somewhere between the onset of sleep is where Tuttle firmly plants the seeds of Peace Potato. Songs like the addictive Harrison-esque acoustic strummer Can It Be and majestic Only In A Dream kick in and fade out like the lurching of the mind’s dream state, with the listener ’s only guide being Tuttle’s fragmented sensory narrative. (see the undulating, utterly-effected Life Boat floating near the end of the first side.) Songs stutter to life and grind to a halt, to calculated effect, stiched together into a patchwork of full tunes, song fragments and waves of melodic euphoria.
