Synopsis

Album Description
Finally! After years of Adam Selzer records that you didn't bother to buy, Adam has finally released an studio album worth owning! Featuring his Maritime Band (Joe Cato on drums, Margret Chang on violin), as well as a host of others (Diana Obscura on cello, Jamie Warner on guitar, David Rood on guitar, Kurt Vile on organ), the album has a full, yet realistic sound that is instantly accessible, though not quite like any other sound on the market. Lyrically and musically, the album appeals to the humorous, dramatic and sympathetic sides of human nature. Drawing on influences from Bob Dylan and Tom Waits to Astor Piazolla and Ute Lemper, "Storm Shadow" features rock, folk, jazz, goth, and whatever else Adam was album to cram into the album. Listen to the way that the violin laughs over the taunts of "The Way Out of Here," or how the electric guitar snickers at the blues/satire "Once More Before I Go #2" (how else is it supposed to react to a 21-year-old who opens his record by claiming that his barn burned down in 1935?) It is an album that will burn its way into your mind, all the while leaving you wondering whether to take it all seriously. "Storm Shadow," by Adam Selzer. This time, the album actually sounds good.
