Teaspoon to the Ocean is a lucid dream, one punctuated by polyrhythmic drums, jangling Ebowed guitar lines, and wavering vocals that tell you to jump in, the water is warm.
Jib Kidder's previous albums—more raw, more punk, and at times slightly more pop—are the busy itineraries of the day, and Teaspoon to the Ocean is the dream sequel to that day, interpreting all of those sounds and memories into a hazy and beautifully nostalgic dream. This album continues where the others left off, as a kaleidoscope of layered bending guitars and sinuous vocals at an ambling tempo.
From the psychedelic polyrhythms of the opening track 'Remove A Tooth' to the collaged collapse of the perfect lazy Sunday in 'In Between' to the fragmented, record-skipping 'World of Machines,' Teaspoon to the Ocean is stacked with glistening, multi-faceted songs for you to close your eyes to as the world beyond the cabin sways.
