Precious metals . . .

"A celebration of brass, steel strings and the simple waltz for the first half of this high quality album.
The 2nd half takes you to an entirely different place where a droning pump organ and 9 person choir massage your weary brain.
For fans of New Folk and Americana, Matthew Houck's opus is a joyride that deserves widespread attention.
One detail I love is that Houck saves his only pure Folk song ("Endless") for the end of the record, and it is a gem and a half."
First listen of this band

"Piano, breaking voices, horns, strings, very Syd Barrettesque vocals. pretty interesting. listen to the demo tracks, well worth your troubles. It's not Sgt. Pepper but it is at least as good as side 4 of the white album."
