iTunes Review
At the foundation of this folky Montreal quartet are the brothers Barr: Brad and Andrew. The former handles guitar duties, bass, and keyboards while the latter holds down rhythms and percussion. Sarah Page contributes harp and hammer dulcimer parts, and their longtime friend Andres Vial dials in pump organ and vibraphone tones. “Beggar in the Morning” opens strong on organic drones, unfolding into a lilting folk-rock dirge. “Ooh, Belle” follows with a hushed autumnal hymn, but “Give the Devil Back His Heart” is a standout gem where handclap rhythms and dexterous electric guitar leads help put the “rock” back in “folk-rock.” Similarly, their driving cover of Blind Willie Johnson’s “Lord, I Just Can't Keep from Crying” pumps open-tuned blues chords through distorted tube amps over a steady drumbeat; the result is something fans of both Black Lips and The Black Keys are sure to dig. “Deacon’s Son” returns The Barr Brothers to their beautifully melancholic musings before “Let There Be Horses” closes on softly strummed acoustic guitar and romantic male/female harmonies.
Customer Reviews
a wonderful surprise....
I just HAPPENED on this album while updating my ipod. It's AMAZING!!!! Loving your sound and every song is fantabulous! Thanks for a wonderful end to a horrible day :)
Inspirant et mélodieux
Dans la même veine que Bon Iver, du folk profond avec une touche de classique bien construit et riche qui grimpe subtilement en émotion graduellement mais de façon convaincante. Je recommande a tous les amis qui veulent une belle ambiance pour relaxer au chalet, au coin du feu, durant la fin de semaine de l'Action de Grâce. Excellent...bravo! Je vais essayer de les voir a la maison des arts de Laval lundi (10-10-11 avec Timber Timbre).
wow
after long time of waithing its finaly there so good to heard those awesome songs again congrats
