Mesopeak is an outlet for New Orleans multi-instrumentalist Robert A.E. Landry to showcase his distinctive songwriting style. Primarily known as the drummer of innumerable local bands dating back to the early aughts, Landry has been developing as a songwriter for years, and his latest full-length reveals the far reaches of his ever-expanding musical universe. Exhausted by the diplomacy of collective songwriting and wary of the sometimes indulgent compositions resulting thereof, Landry intended Mesopeak to be a forthright expression of vision. Thus, he plays every instrument on the album, and every song employs the same open guitar tuning (D, A, E, F#, A, E), as repeating chord patterns underscore minimalist motifs.
