Sounds Like
"moody folk songs with a bleeding edge"
"bird-crazy, dark-folk song cycles"
"pulsing, experimental Americana"
"somber elegant folk in league with Low, Black Heart Procession, Sixteen Horsepower, Red House Painters and Mountain Goats"
"An earth-toned tapestry of strummy acoustic guitar, sinewy electric guitar textured with unexpected percussive and atmospheric elements."
"a multi-layered undertaking full of wonderful metaphors and musical invention"
"an audible topography that really requires a still room, absolute focus or both to absorb"
