I’m always up for a nice WTF-type track, and this one by Seabrook Power Plant certainly qualifies. Consider: A banjo-led power trio performs a composition named after a classic-rock guitar hero. Said piece is featured on an album sporting phenomenal cover art (pictured) by a visionary art-metal composer and slated for a July 14 release via a label operated by a prominent Norwegian jazz bassist. Still with me? No matter: The stream below will tell you all you need to know. This group—banjoist Brandon Seabrook, bassist Tom Blancarte and drummer Jared Seabrook—summons a uniquely whimsical sort of fury that somehow resolves all of the eclectic genre touchstones mentioned above. Whatever your reference point, Seabrook Power Plant is a hell of a lot of fun.
