Jesse Daniel Edwards - Clap Trap Venus

Jesse Daniel Edwards' fourth full-length Clap Trap Venus is a sonic explosion of sound. If it needs to be put in a box you could call it piano-based alternative indie rock. The melodic, dramatic offerings of Bowie and Queen come to mind, shot through with the deft melodicism of more modern masters like Rufus Wainwright and Ron Sexsmith. It is operatic rock dressed up in a leather jacket, brandishing a switchblade. Outstanding outer space original visual design makes for high-grade bin appeal.Limited edition 300
