canuck Reviewed 2008-10-11 | ||
Gorgeous breathy and distinctively voiced indie folk from Portland. Justin Ringle and Peter Broderick together write and orchestrate this string-heavy folk music. Ringle's voice is breathy and muffled. Balances the vocals, guitar and orchestration well. This albums really good. -Adrian My picks: all, but especially 1, 3, 6, 9, 10, 11 FCC: clean 1. med-slow. gorgeous slow strum with 3/4 lilt to it, violin, female harmony vox. 2. mid tempo. strings, guitar, glockenspiel. Another gem. 3. mid tempo. lilting banjo + guitar. nice harmonies interspersed. 4. med-fast. driving finger-picking. strings. really nice melody. interspersed sections of random instrumental noises 5. med-slow. lilting strings. slows to a stop and then picks up again midway through. 6. starts slow, just strings. med-slow and sparse under the vocals w/ slight pizzicato strings. builds more near the end. 7. white noise then med-slow piano. instrumental. 8. med-slow. bluesey guitar and, later, strings. 9. slow. piano ballad. really pretty. 10. med-fast. mandolin, strings, guitar. more upbeat than most on the album. really nice harmonies later. 11. slow. guitar and slow string swells. |
