Van Hunt
With his new What Were You Hoping For?, Van Hunt employs a spare but dizzyingly vibrant
meld of day-glo psychedelic soul laced with glammed-up riffs and the acerbic energy of
punk. A joint venture between the Nashville-based Thirty Tigers and Hunt’s own label,
godless-hotspot, the album sees the Grammy-winning musician/songwriter/producer
turning up the volume on his genre-smashing songcraft and the results are altogether
gripping. From the breakneck “Watching You Go Crazy Is Driving Me Insane” and “A Time
Machine Is My New Girlfriend” to the metallic k.o. of the album’s first single,“Eyes Like
Pearls,” Hunt unleashes a sound that reverberates with caustic wit, passion, and the thrilling
excitement of an artist operating at the peak of his powers. Careening with exhilarating
intensity and frenetic, inventive musicality, What Were You Hoping For? is Van Hunt’s most
daring and provocative work to date
