Released via David Byrne's Luaka Bop label, this highly eccentric debut spins deeply surreal, Southern Gothic narratives of the American backwoods. White's whispery, talk-singing delivery is uniquely paired with eerie folk instrumentation and subtle electronic trip-hop loops, establishing an incredibly atmospheric, swampy alt-country masterpiece.
