Philadelphia singer/songwriter Kurt Vile returns with his second proper album (2008's Childish Prodigy was a compendium of sorts). Smoke Ring for My Halo is a gorgeously layered record. Ranging from the tender breezy folk in Jesus Fever to the tuff urban guitar riff of Puppet to the Man, Vile's distinctive Philly-accented vocal ties together a sweeping & evocative project - a true American psychedelic folk album. Baby's Arms, Jesus Fever, Puppet to the Man, On Tour, Society Is My Friend, Runner Ups, In My Time, Peeping Tomboy, Smoke Ring for My Halo, Ghost Town
