Comment: at the first glance this case of 6 compositions may seem a bit tedious and weary. Yet by listening to the release many times in a row there can be drawn analogous parallels upon Wilco's issues which also start to blossom after a while by unveiling different aspects and suggestive moments. Regarding the kind of indie folk one should not try to create a new form of it at any cost because it could be a Sisyphean effort. The virtue of a folk album is related to its coherence between the melodies and harmonies and the lyrics. Between some exquisite minutiae to create something truly spellbinding and impeccable. One can find out many enchanting moments from within it - from acoustic guitar-based rants to more bombastic synthesised orchestrations. The decent outing is a part of the discography of a German imprint, Digital Kunstrasen.
