kingofthechickens More awesome from these folks. caught 2 of the full band shows and they were excellent too. Flippin' good noises made by people who clearly love what they do. Wrap yer lugholes around it and enjoy.

hag There's such a special, untimely presence to James's music, a kind of honesty that floors me. Tugs the heart strings in a beautiful, life affiming way. Favorite track: A Forestful Of Rogues.

Neil Harrison Sam and Jeanie McGreagor is such a thing of beauty. vocally, lyrically , musically ... perfect. ends and leaves me wanting more - which this album supplies in copious amounts. little pieces of imperfect perfection. Favorite track: Sam and Jeanie McGreagor.

rancidmice bittersweet ending! even the joyful tracks bring damp to the eyes Favorite track: Tell Me.

hershelroswell I experienced my first significant bereavement this year (a beloved childhood dog), and listening to Hieron has helped me confront my grief both before and after his passing. Thank you to all the Friends - and especially to Jack, who is truly in fine form in this album (Tell Me instantly makes me well up) - for creating such a beautiful story. Favorite track: Under the Boughs.

ill-omens Been giving a relisten to all their music lately casually, as I try to aslo catch up on road to palisade and finally start palisade and...just on this alone and really giving time to the music and the memory of the scene, and the music is such a key in how they all bring to life such beautiful and tragic characters. special mention to Tell Me for being exactly that. A god more human than divine, going to his death for the sake of his son and how i get a little teary listening to it. Favorite track: Tell Me.
