Release Notes:
--------
JosΘ Gonzßlez's usual mode -- hushed, pretty, acoustic, melancholy -- gets
goosed by krautrock ghosts in this side-project trio. Fleshed out with sinister
synths and laid-back drums, the Swedish folkie's songs breathe and groove like
never before. That's not always a good thing. "Sweet & Bitter" loses its focus
in dusky slink, and "Tide" builds toward nothing much at all. But when the
band's fluid undercurrents mesh with Gonzßlez's acoustic guitar and
half-whispered words -- the Sea & Cakeûlike "Always," the sexily insistent
"Howl" -- it's just as exhilarating as his gorgeous solo work.
