"Debut album from this duo, which features Stars of the Lid member Adam Wiltzie and composer Dustin OʼHalloran. Recorded in large acoustic spaces on traditional instruments. Cellist Hildur Gudnadottir and violinist Peter Broderick make guest appearances. "Requiem for the Static King Part One" is in memory of Sparklehorse's Mark Linkous."

 

Sounds money.

[Tauhid]

He's late about it anyways.

[Guest Enter a new display name]

This album is fantastically beautiful. What else could you expect me to say about an album related to SOTL though?

[Guest Archrival]

Will be one of the best albums of the year for sure.

 

"Enter a new display name" we seem to have almost the same taste in music! Any recommendations of other nice releases this year? :D

[Guest Deep Fried Everything]

damn, i just missed the performance of this last night here in chicago... the album looks great though!

steep hills of vicodin tears makes me high ;)

[eh Speedy]

It's badass. I'd could say I almost prefer The Dead Texan or this to Stars. They are a bit more decisive in form. Kinda more poppy and direct.

[Dementia]

Is Benoît Pioulard part of the group or is he only touring with them?

[Tauhid]

Just touring with them.

[Capsaicin]

I'm so fucking bummed about the vinyl tragedy. I hope they get more stock in soon, this would sound absolutely gorgeous on a record player.
