I would like to start this post by saying this record could be the most beautiful and promising collection of songs i have heard in a longtime. It is humble and bold, slow and tender, a mix of gentle cadences followed by soaring soulful vocals. And yet, this band is still hip in a very bohemian and folk feeling way. Fans of Fleet Foxes simply must have a look at this record. I encourage you to support this band and buy their LP here. Cheers.

Super chill, and very folky. Don't kid yourself if you don't need something like this to listen to and take it easy every now again, then you need to see your therapist less. The song Tiger Mountain Peasant Song, is one of the most beautiful I have ever heard.
