Comment: I
discovered this Knoxville, Tennessee, US-based combo thanks to mesmerizing 1st
Borrowdeer Records compilation of involving such artists as Wooden Nickle,
Samo, Forsa, Burnt Shielafante, Queens College Organs, Diacon-Panthers,
Workhouse Industries, Khemo Rabbit, Leopard Meat, Fresh Cherries from Yakima,
Cemetery Cemetery, Fast Money Music, Ginger Minx, Wrapping Paper, Happy
Veterans Day, Chauchat, Animauled, Courtney Short, Accordion+Tetris. The
miscellany embraces a bunch of
tendencies related to the New Weird America movement. Indeed, there was also
represented Deek Hoi`s California which
is the opening track on The Golden
Country. It is pre-eminent Americana/indie folk album with hints at cosmic
and dream pop. Indeed, the combo used to experiment with different forms, droning
sounds and some electronic debris while upholding the album`s organic touch
throughout the course. Indeed, all these songs are craftily built up resulting
in striking melodies and harmonies. The lyrics are profound putting the
listener think of essential things in his/her life (for instance, Dear Child; Eiea; Family Song). For
instance, the latter composition makes you longing and searching for warmth and
a halcyon state of mind. I suggest to shed light upon the other issues of the
combo either (all the package can be found at Bandcamp). They are truly worth
to be discovered again.
