With a mixture of punk rock, electronica, abstract hip-hop beats, and the wailing Jim Morrison like vocals, Jonathan Vance’s Sylvia Eagle is an eclectic musical cocktail. Though the average hip-hop listener might not grasp onto the obscure beats and emo-ish vocals, Sylvia Eagle is a solid EP that is worth the time to listen too.
