Egypt Station

A sprawling travelogue of modern pop and classic rock. Polished, playful, and occasionally deeply vulnerable, it captures a master songwriter in a restless mood.

It's Paul doing what he does best: massive melodies, weird experiments, and songs that feel like old friends.

A vibrant and restless journey that balances elder-statesman wisdom with a youthful hunger for pop experimentation.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The transition from the ambient station noise into the vulnerable piano chords of I Don't Know

The ambitious seven-minute multi-movement epic Despite Repeated Warnings shifting through distinct sonic gears

The gritty, distorted guitar riff and heavy groove that anchors the bluesy Caesar Rock
