Cameron Winter – Heavy Metal (Silver Vinyl)

Cameron Winter of Geese goes lone goose on 'Heavy Metal', which is absolutely not in that genre. Rather it's just about the best late 60s early 70s songwriter record we've heard in a while as he spins yarns and emotion like Cohen, Waits and Dylan.

‘Heavy Metal’ is the debut solo album from Geese frontman Cameron Winter. It’s an unexpected sonic left turn from Geese’s now-patented brand of jam-adjacent indie twang.

Winter mostly forgoes stadium-sized guitars in favour of a softer touch that puts his mystical, imaginative lyrical style on full display.

Occasionally confounding, endlessly rewarding, ‘Heavy Metal’ reveals Winter as a chameleonic master of his craft, a shapeshifting singer-songwriter in the mould of greats like Dylan, Cohen and Nilsson.
