Stafford, Adam

***"Like the Allen Ginsberg poem which inspired its title, ADAM STAFFORD’s Imaginary Walls Collapse is a bold and transformative work, one which skirts boldly and inventively across countless ideas with little regard for established stylistic boundaries. This is hardly surprising, as Stafford has long since established himself as one of the most creative minds in Scottish music, first with the under-appreciated alt-folk outfit Y’ALL IS FANTASY ISLAND and then with his tireless solo projects which regularly traverse the lines between folk, pop, loop experiments and noise. This however, his second ‘proper’ solo album, is his most fully realised and accessible release to date, as he condenses these myriad influences into a melting pot of electric Americana folk and weird experimental pop. 8/10"—The Line Of Best Fit.
