Stream It From The Mountain: Joesph – I Dreamed You Were My Lover

Joesph is the psych-rock project led by Joey Cook, formerly of Cincy psych-pop faves Pomegranates/Healing Power.  The third Joesph album titled, I Dreamed You Were My Lover was released last week via Cook’s own label, The Eyebrow Palace.  Usually a trio with Cook joined by Pierce Geary and Devyn Glista; he goes it alone for this new album, which was actually recorded in 2013. 

I Dreamed You Were My Lover is highlighted by acoustic guitars and strange synths, adding elements of prog rock and psych-folk to his quirky brand of bedroom pop.  Standouts include, “Two Suns” which retains some of Healing Power’s surging surf-rock dynamics and “Flash And Flame” which grows from an acoustic strummer to an electrified psychedelic freak-out.      

The album is available now digitally, on CD and as a limited edition CD box set that includes artwork by Cook and artifacts inspired by the album.
