Kind Heaven

Description

Kind Heaven, the first solo album from visionary artist Perry Ferrell in over a 18 years, draws heavily from a wide variety of sources, from the tumultuous political situation in the United States to ancient Messianic prophecies. Wrapping these themes in a soundscape that veers between the alt rock that made the former Janes Addiction and Porno For Pyros frontman a legend and experiments with electronica, the record was co-produced with David Bowie collaborator Tony Visconti and features contributions from Tommy Lee, Dhani Harrison, Taylor Hawkins and more.

Kind Heaven is an expansive set of interlinked compositions fused together by Farrells electrifying vocals into a rich sonic tapestry. Meticulously interwoven rock, electronic, and symphonic elements combine to yield a compelling tale told through large-scale orchestral scores (courtesy of Hollywood composer Harry Gregson-Williams), intense back-and-forth duets with Etty Lau Farrell, and flourishes of hard guitar with electronic vocal distortions. Farrells long-awaited return entrances the listener into a musical adventure grappling with lifes eternal questions and engaging its biggest challenges.

The first single Pirate Punk Politician is a searing indictment of the current state of our planet under a rising tide of autocratic regimes. Farrell describes Pirate Punk Politician as a good old fashioned protest song about todays strongmen and their tactics of oppression.
