Don’t let the title scare you; despite sharing a moniker with both an Eric Clapton album and an Iron Maiden song, the Lovetones‘ “Journeyman” is a wistful piece of psychedelic pop. This Australian four-piece manages to combine a space-age melody, jangly guitars and melancholy vocals into a cohesive and distinctive sound. Fronted by former Drop City member Matt Tow, whose three-month stint with the Brian Jonestown Massacre presumably taught him a little bit about psychedelic dysfunction, the Lovetones have been touting their brand of dreamy pop for nearly a decade. Their latest album, Dimensions, dropped on February 24 via Planting Seeds Records. So stream or download “Journeyman” below.
