Puma Blue Walks Us Through ‘Unnatural’ Processes Behind New LP ‘Croak Dream’

Posted in Interviews with tags , , on 03/28/2026 by Kurt Orzeck

Rather than compiling a double album or reimagining material into acoustic form, Puma Blue’s Jacob Allen created two entirely separate albums from the same creative spark. Released a year apart nearly to the day, last February’s antichamber and this past month’s Croak Dream are something of a yin and yang to each other. “antichamber was all about what’s nestled inside you that you’re not ready to look at, whereas Croak Dream feels like an explosion of letting it all hang out and being free—less curated and sheltered with you exposing your soul,” Allen explains.
