In Loving Memory Of Oosi Lockjaw, the latest album by Hezekiah Jones, is a beautiful and haunting tribute to the artist's late friend and collaborator. The album is a masterful blend of folk, rock, and Americana, with Hezekiah Jones' signature poetic lyrics and intricate instrumentation.
The album opens with "The Great Parade," a mournful ballad that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The song is full of poignant imagery and vivid descriptions of loss and grief, and it's clear from the outset that this is an album that deals with big emotions.
Throughout the album, Hezekiah Jones explores themes of love, loss, and the passage of time. "The Dark Heart's Out" is a standout track, with its driving rhythm and soaring chorus. The song is filled with imagery of nature and the changing seasons, and it's a beautiful meditation on the cyclical nature of life and death.
Other highlights of the album include the haunting "The Dark Don't Hide It," the upbeat and catchy "Wild Ox Moan," and the bittersweet "The Last Parade."
