Desert Strings and Drifters [EP]

VINYL FORMAT. The four offerings that comprise the journey of Desert Strings And Drifters, "Try To Sleep," "Cashmere, Washington," "Arizona" and "All Out Of...," act more like movements to a cohesive whole than separate songs. The haunting melodies strewn throughout, the hypnotic repetition that builds and builds, never to burst but to dissipate and begin again, and the mournful violin that appears and reappears without warning or the lamenting recollections that pass for lyrics all act as subtle sonic handholds. Still, Desert Strings And Drifters is best absorbed as a whole, lest one miss any of its beauty, passion and emotion.
