Demolished Thoughts feels vital and purposed, more like a debut than an encore.
Demolished Thoughts’ explorations take Moore as far from his punk roots as he has yet travelled, towards some pastoral folk hinterland.
Here is an album that is immediately engaging and yet demands repeated listens just to experience guitar chords from another land.
It takes the acoustic tendencies of his last solo record and turns them to 11.
Demolished Thoughts either cannot or will not go far enough to distance the singer from his day job.
Thurston Moore’s acoustic solo album, Demolished Thoughts, is just long, slow, dull, and boring like a Thurston Moore acoustic album.
