Album Notes & Community Reviews
Recorded entirely using a single ambisonic microphone inside a residential garage, the Canadian group's debut laid the foundation for their signature, hushed Americana sound. The album primarily consists of radically slowed-down, intensely melancholic blues covers, establishing a deeply sparse and hypnotic sonic blueprint.
