PRESS:
"True, gripping melodies—ones that stand up to repeated listening. - Entertainment Weekly
"Puts forth fragile, folky songs that at times evoke elements of Neil Young. (Not all evokers of Neil Young are worth spending time with, but this act is.)" - USA TODAY
"Shearer sings in metaphor and poetry." - Seattle Weekly
"My early contender for local album of the year, "La Lamentor' is a disc to cherish" - The Oregonian
"Damn is it beautiful" - Willamette Week
"The members of Weinland use their instruments like vanishing resources: cautiously. The Portland five-piece's frontman, Adam Shearer, channels Elliot Smith's frail whisper — and like Smith's, his voice can stand steadfastly alone over a single guitar or piano note. Sometimes, however, the band gorges ..o, upright bass, banjo, and organ, with Shearer's voice fading in and out as simply another instrument in the pack. Weinland picks from folk, rock, and everything in between, but at its core, the group creates classic Americana, like Neil Young's quieter moments, or more recently, M. Ward." - SF Guardian
"La Lamentor is one of those albums that is beautifully arranged and produced, leaving the songs to sidle up next to the listener like long lost friends." - Americana UK
"Five beardos who create some of the finest brooding folk rock in [Portland]" - Harp Magazine
"An amazing & intimate collection of hauntingly beautiful folk lullabies—the kind that are so good they give you goose bumps." - The Portland Mercury |
