With 14 albums under his belt, Seattle artist Damien Jurado is as creative as he is prolific. Just when we thought Brothers and Sisters of the Eternal Son couldn't be matched, the underrated indie rock veteran has proven that he still has more tricks up his sleeve. Nowhere is it more evident than on his latest album, Visions of Us on the Land. Over Jurado's nearly 20-year career, the velvet-voiced musician has successfully transitioned from grunge-folk to a complex, sophisticated pop sound while still staying true to his rock 'n' roll roots. If Beck were ever to produce a Chris Isaak/Jose Gonzalez collaboration on the moon, it would probably sound a lot like Jurado's two most recent albums. With songs like "Walrus," "Silver Timothy," "Jericho Road," and "Qachina," Jurado and his producer Richard Swift may have created their own epic genre of music that can only be described as bluesy-psych-lounge-spaghetti-western.
