https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSxZy_7Ps90&feature=youtu.be The sound of Timber Timbre's latest and greatest LP Hot Dreams calls to mind the visuals of either a Lynchian Western or vintage film noir. This Tyler T. Williams-directed video for album highlight "Curtains?!" delivers on the latter, starring Williams collaborator Joel Kliebe as an apparent hitman just released from prison and getting back to business. The stark, shady atmosphere here is (in my opinion) a much better fit for Timber Timbre's sonic direction than Chad VanGaalen's trippy animation for "Bang the Drum Slowly," although give that one a chance too, if you've yet to.

Timber Timbre - Hot Dreams
ReviewsCommentEven though it leaves me starving for more, Timber Timbre's latest record features some of the best tracks and instrumentation to ever come out of this project.
Timber Timbre - "Hot Dreams"
New TracksCommentThe eerie Taylor Kirk-led singer-songwriter project Timber Timbre drops a steamy new single titled "Hot Dreams." The forthcoming album it's featured on has the same title, too.
I love the slow, retro balladry going on here. It's the perfect setting for Kirk's voice. He's always had a knack for channeling the past, but doing something subtly weird with it. In the case of "Hot Dreams," it's the sexual lyricism, which is matched with a pretty NSFW music video--uh, unless you work at a strip club.
While the words here express a lot of lust, there's a lot of affection and devotion to balance it out, too. It's an all-around beautiful track. Maybe one of Timber Timbre's least creepy expressions of love as of late--if you don't know what I'm talking about, listen to this.
