We have recently hit a tiny blip and due to issues both real and fictional we have had to drop our show to one hour. we could argue that this makes this show all the more rare and beautiful, so listen in for a cool collection of tunes all made right here on earth for your listening pleasure.
Album of the week,
Aureola by Hush Arbors / Arbouretum
Hush Arbors music suggests some strange place where John Philips, Merle Haggard, Charalambides and Federico Garcia Lorca all occupy the same neighborhood tavern. His songs are fluid and lucid and frequently dazzling, displaying a mastery of craft only gleaned from countless pie-eyed hours strumming along to records late at night and absorbing their individual magic. Hush Arbors is Keith Woods near-perfect distillation of all that magic.
Dave Heumann's allegorical and metaphorical lyrics for Arbouretum ride gently atop his fuzzed-out guitar solos, pushing them ever higher into the stratosphere, and lending his songs an emotional weight uncommon in "heavy rock" music. The band also continues to push forward, experimenting with improvisation to capture a more immediate feel that reflects their ever-changing live performances. Arbouretum perfectly exemplify a band that exists in a dual state. They are both loose and rhythmic, channeling the Velvet Underground's repetitive grooves, but also technically precise and expansive. Folk ballads and acid-guitar psychedelia in perfect harmony. It's music that can be played on an acoustic guitar or pushed through a distortion pedal and a stack of amps. The new tracks on Aureola serve as both the next step in Arbouretum's evolution and a glimpse of what's to come on their next full-length due out in the Fall of 2012.
We couldn't find much in the way of material from this album other than this live reworking of the Hush Arbors Track, Sleeper. its well worth a look.
And here's a taste of Arbouretum with White bird from their album The Gathering.
