Loud And Quiet
A dramatic, often unhinged breakup story that morphed into something bigger
“Obviously it’s not a record that everybody is going to listen to and enjoy. There’s some level of difficulty that’s going to turn some people off… and turn some people on even more.” Joscelin Dent-Pooley is as straight about his debut album as he’s always been about his good education and classical training in violin and piano.
Winterreise – released as Jerskin Fendrix in April – is named after an 1828 song cycle by Schubert and contains all the implied grandeur and ambition. It’s best to describe it as an experimental pop album – a dramatic, often unhinged breakup story that morphed into something bigger and weirder over the three years it took to make.
