Evening fires is a quartet of pennsylvanians, featuring
members of clear spots and nessmuk, as well as the brains
behind the deep water acres website & label. they're busy
guys, but still found the time last summer and fall to crank
out a set of backporch jams and slipstream electric boogaloos.
they get help on banjo and mandolin on a few tracks, too,
beefing up the downhome goodness.
what really makes "figures of earth" such a stunning album is
the diversity that doesn't take away from the overall flow.
kraut-infused songs fit seemlessly next to something
reminiscent of the black twigs. they don't fight it out, they
just keep it mellow and roll on down the way. using an array
of instrumentation from guitars, synths, and drums to
saxophone, bodhran, and tabla, you get a lot of mileage out of
these 47 minutes. the perfect soundtrack to your summer
roadtrip. limited to 73 handnumbered copies.
