Ryan Adams Drops Sci-Fi Metal Concept Album

Videos by American Songwriter

It’s sci-fi. It’s conceptual. It’s metal. It’s Ryan Adams’ new album.

Orion, which was recorded in 2006, before the prolific songwriter’s presumed retirement, is being referred to as Adams’ “first fully-realized sci-fi metal concept album.” We’d explain what all that means, but we can’t…it’s the very first one!

Get your copy here, but don’t look for the CD. There isn’t one. Instead, you can snap it up on deluxe vinyl, which these sort of things are meant to be played on. Presumably.
