Description
The new record by Santa Fe-via-Denver recording artist Paul DeHaven is titled "Burden of Paradise". It is a loosely apocalyptic spaghetti western, with intertwining musical and lyrical motifs based on ghostly echoes heard wandering red canyons and the spiritual vacuum of late-stage capitalism.
It sounds kind of like if Crazy Horse were playing in a warehouse in warehouse in East Berlin and then opened the door and found themselves in Terlingua after the bomb. But if the fallout revealed itself to be the jaded listlessness that came from having everything you ever wanted and still facing emptiness within. Everything should be fine. But nothing is right.
Paul DeHaven has been a fixture of the thriving Denver, CO music scene for nearly 20 years. Though written and recorded over the past five years, his latest effort "Burden of Paradise", reflects his relocation to Santa Fe, NM. It is dry, whispering, dark, and vast, like the high desert landscape he now calls home
