Whatever, Mortal - Papa M (2001)

David Pajo has been in a bunch of bands as well as recording as multiple solo pseudonyms. There’s basically no way Slint’s Spiderland album and at least one of the early Tortoise albums he played on don’t end up in this space before too long.

This is one of his solo outings that has big Leonard Cohen dark troubador energy.

Tracks I Liked

Beloved Woman - droning rock

Glad You’re Here With Me - mellow music, dark lyric

Tamu - a hazy, shimmering instrumental piece that I could listen to all day
