Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter Max Clarke sets the tone of the third Cut Worms album from the very first song, the country-folk highlight "Don't Fade Out." Atop a foundation of buoyant piano and easygoing guitars, Clarke expresses anxiety over his insecurities ("Can't get myself to say the things in my heart/ I always find it never came out/ Like I thought it would be") and pleads with a significant other to stick with him: "Don't fade out on me."
That same heart-on-sleeve vibe, which alternates between sunny optimism ("Let's Go Out On The Town") and wishful thinking ("Living Inside"), permeates the rest of the self-titled album. Fittingly, Clarke cloaks this wistfulness in music that often channels the innocence—and country-influenced sound—of '50s rock ‘n' roll. But Cut Worms offers many moods, with Clarke offering nods to breezy Hawaiian music ("Is It Magic?"), lush '70s soft rock ("Too Bad") and modern indie-pop jangle (the pedal steel-augmented "Ballad of the Texas King"), all delivered in his empathetic, open-hearted tone.
Cut Worms' cohesion is even more impressive when you consider Clarke recorded the album in three separate places. Some songs came together in his practice space, while his live band was enlisted to track other songs at the studio of Rick Spataro (Florist). However, Cut Worms shines on the tracks with the core members of the Lemon Twigs, Brian and Michael D'Addario. The brothers recorded and performed on "Don't Fade Out" and "Living Inside"; the latter song's string-dusted orchestration is especially poignant and illustrates how well the album uses classic flourishes in fresh ways. © Annie Zaleski/Qobuz
