MJ Lenderman

I thought the whole comparisons were blown out of proportion, but honestly... he does sound like him, both instrumentally and vocally. At the beginning, MJ Lenderman employs moments of 90s slacker-style indie rock to his sound, which feels like the missing piece in the puzzle of Jason's late career struggles. Still, as the album progresses, he dips more and more into the slowcore territory Jason was most known for.

But it's not all "MJ Lenderman =". MJ Lenderman goes the extra mile and gives the entire album a fuller feel, with traces of jazz, and post-rock, all while still being faithful to the craft of alt-country. It's a bit longer than I would like, but the songs don't feel forced and are rich in rural, rustic, and slow country.

After listening to it, it's uncanny how much this sounds like Jason, with a bit of. It's like a lost album that came from a time capsule from the early 2000s.
