         █░█    Broken homes. Sweeping landscapes. A castle. A     █░█
         █░█    yellow house. A steel bridge. A length of rope.    █░█
         █░█    Angels and devils. And of course economics.        █░█
         █░█    Always economics.                                  █░█
         █░█                                                       █░█
         █░█    These are the images that flow through Dogs &      █░█
         █░█    Donkeys, Christian KieferÆs fifth full-length      █░█
         █░█    album and the first full-length project released   █░█
         █░█    by Undertow.                                       █░█
         █░█                                                       █░█
         █░█    Like all of KieferÆs releases, the images in Dogs  █░█
         █░█    & Donkeys coalesce around a particular theme.      █░█
         █░█    This album is ôaboutö economics, although noting   █░█
         █░█    this fact so bluntly denies the subtlety with      █░█
         █░█    which the topic is addressed. Telling two          █░█
         █░█    narratives simultaneously, KieferÆs new album      █░█
         █░█    interweaves completely disparate lives into a      █░█
         █░█    single narrative thread, ultimately exploring the  █░█
         █░█    relationships between economic pressures from a    █░█
         █░█    variety of angles.                                 █░█
         █░█                                                       █░█
         █░█    Of course, such concerns are risky. One can        █░█
         █░█    easily slip into Roger Waters territory:           █░█
         █░█    grandiosity or pretentious psychobabble or         █░█
         █░█    soapbox-style proselytizing. But KieferÆs          █░█
         █░█    concerns here are not to preach, but rather to     █░█
         █░█    explore, and his careful imagery speaks volumes    █░█
         █░█    of his background in the study of American         █░█
         █░█    literature (in fact, Kiefer recently completed a   █░█
         █░█    Ph.D. in the subject at the University of          █░█
         █░█    California, Davis).                                █░█
         █░█                                                       █░█
         █░█    Perhaps because of his interest in poetry and      █░█
         █░█    fiction, KieferÆs latest project (like his         █░█
         █░█    previous releases on Extreme) has a novelistic     █░█
         █░█    quality. The imagery bisects territory staked out  █░█
         █░█    by T.S. Eliot and Saul Bellow and mixes with the   █░█
         █░█    poetry of James Wright.                            █░█
         █░█                                                       █░█
         █░█    Kiefer has been fortunate enough to have worked    █░█
         █░█    with such fine instrumentalists as Darol Anger,    █░█
         █░█    Mike Marshall, and Joe Craven (all former or       █░█
         █░█    present members of the David Grisman Quintet) and  █░█
         █░█    Kronos Quartet-alum Joan Jeanrenaud.               █░█
         █░█                                                       █░█
         █░█    This time around, Kiefer has enlisted the          █░█
         █░█    services of legendary keyboard man Garth Hudson    █░█
         █░█    of The Band (on tracks 5 and 10), Wilco guitarist  █░█
         █░█    Nels Cline (on tracks 4, 11 and 12), and the       █░█
         █░█    sweet vocal harmonies of LowÆs Alan Sparhawk and   █░█
         █░█    Mimi Parker (on 7, 8, and 9). The effect is a      █░█
         █░█    devastatingly beautiful musical journey.           █░█
