2008, Field Records
'Condor & River' is the title of the 17-minute opus by Her Name is Calla. Originally self-released by the band in 2007 and hand-packaged in corrugated cardboard, it sold out quickly and was very well received by the media and fans alike. A much sought after collector's item, the original recording is now re-releasedl through Field records as a split with the bands friends, Maybeshewill.
Following on from the success of the bands recent mini album, 'The Heritage','Condor and River' is available during the interim before Her Name is Calla's full length debut due in 2009.
'Rarely has a piece of music actually sounded so idyllic for a setting far beyond your wildest imagination...Whatever the inspiration for this, it sure as hell makes listening to straightforward three-minute trad-pop songs impossible afterwards, and simply begs the question: why can't all artists be as ambitiously prophetic as this?' - Drowned in Sound (8/10)
