Bad Timing
Jim O'Rourke
This 1997 release offers an expansive folk experience that remains grounded in classic songwriting while exploring avant-garde ideas. The lengthy compositions allow for a gradual build of tension seldom found in folk rock.
Lush acoustic production puts the focus on the complex guitar playing throughout the album. It functions as a connection between his experimental history and a more accessible, melodic direction.
