A very impressive little psychedelic folk album. This isn't usually my genre of choice, but there's really something unique about this record; the production is such that it's quite difficult to tell if it was recorded in the 1970s or last week. There are prog-esque instrumental segues, beautiful piano pieces, etc.; Type Records has really honed in on a lot of great off-kilter folk/rock acts that somehow, taken together, constitute a cohesive sound.

Style: Folk, Psychedelic

RIYL: Wooden Shjips, Helios
