When you take the titles of Tyler Kamen’s albums in isolation, it feels like the NY based multi-dimensional rockstar has a thing for high vocabulary. But it’s in the madness of his vision, the sheer eclecticism of each arrangement, and the layers to each track that really makes a record like “Bamboozle Tesseract” stand out. There’s a lusciousness to the audio, a bright and vibrant energy that fills you with colour and warmth as you go down this glam rock and progressive adventure. It feels both futuristic and inherently nostalgic with its influences of that 80s sound still peaking within the larger amalgamation of the forward thinking arrangement.
“Bamboozle Tesseract” is intoxicating, it’s melodic interpolation of glamorous and vibrant arrangements with a vocal performance that elevates the overall piece has you enraptured throughout.
The album as a whole continues that infectious and intoxicating energy through and through, a thoroughly colourful and warm exploration of classical rock at its core mixed with a much more flavourful and imaginative injection of progressive elements that combine to create what is uniquely the sound of Tyler Kamen. A pioneer and trailblazer with a voice and path of his own, “Bamboozle Tesseract” is a landmark project.
