Prismrose by David Grubbs
Prismrose is a nearly wordless collection of six pieces for electric guitar, all given real time to breathe and mutate. It’s an album that documents what an electric guitar sounds like in David Grubbs’s hands — with Eli Keszler dropping by to pummel some drums — now that we’ve stumbled into the year 2016.
