Surrealistic soft-rock from the former freak-folk wildman. Building on the warped lullabies of 2013’s <i>Mala</i>, <i>Ape</i> is a strange but uncommonly gentle album, filled with whispered lyrics, keyboard drones, hints of lounge (“Theme for a Taiwanese Woman in Lime Green”) and ‘70s AM gold (“Saturday Night”). In short, a quiet reinvention.
