Gentle, droney instrumental noise jams, kind of a psych attitude but done with sparse atmosphere. Banjo and bells, touches of female vocal, some electronics including ambient drones in the background. Long, late-night tracks (16 to 24 minues, excluding the 4-minute "hidden" track). Nice idea, feels a bit directionless at times. FCC safe.
1- Sparse start cut by short electronic noises, badly recorded (mic overload here and there). Gentle banjo takes over for a long, peaceful, quiet jam, with brief add-ons of flute or percussion. 17 minutes.
2- Gently ringing start with piano, bells, vocal. Electronic buzz takes over, gives way to a lengthy drone with sparse add-ons like aimless drums. Later, a few levels-busting electronics tones, atop what's still a droney landscape. 22 minutes.
3- (Audible crowd banter at start; this is the lone live track.) First 5 minutes: Light banjo dabblings over swelling ambient background. Makes an nice excerpt ..... the remaining 21 minutes include a gentle, spacey zone with some guitar ... with the last several minutes incorporating a roaring sound that turns into helicopter guitar buzz. Ends gently.
4- Suddenly loud, a lo-fi rock jam. Sloppy and glorious, and totally out of character. Just 4 minutes, and not mentioned on the CD cover.
