Milsom’s newest project is the release of his second solo album, “Painfully Mainstream” through DFTBA Records with production support from 19 Entertainment. In the new album, Milsom explores a broader palette of music styles and textures ranging from post-rock to anti-folk, from gypsy-punk to all-out thrash metal. Four of the eleven songs of the album are named for the seasons and serve as an emotional roadmap guiding listeners through the journey
While he is adept at the core instruments of rock—guitar, bass, drums, keyboards, and synthesizer—Milsom frequently lightens his sound with the unexpected use of ukulele, accordion, kazoo, 8-bit GameBoy, and a Casiotone MT-100 that’s older than he is. In addition to these, “Painfully Mainstream” features Milsom on banjo, mandolin, melodica, omnichord, organ, theremin, glockenspiel, slide whistle, and vocals.
