Written on a series of solo-trips to various national parks and the Ozarks, this album is a largely a reflection on a human\u2019s interactions with the natural world.<\/p>\n<p>Musically the album is somewhere between Joanna Newsom and the Dirty Projectors. It&#8217;s a definite folk album with layers of instrumentation, including some electric instruments, but Falconberry also includes harmonies that would fit perfectly in a Projector\u2019s album.<\/p>\n<p>Her lyrics are filled with mentions of obscure animals who she seems to be in conversation with as she reflects on issues such as the transience of life. While this sounds a bit odd, it actually comes off as inspired, coming up with lyrics like \u201cAll that we now hold that too shall go \/ So there I cried like chapel bells, Oh! I\u2019ve come untied like sea shells \/ But overhead a gull did sound so thought instead \/ No, this heart is bound.\u201d This album if for fans of folk music with thoughtful lyrics.<br \/>\n<b><br \/>\nRecommended If You Like: Joanna Newsom, Laura Gibson, Neko Case<br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Recommended Tracks: 1 (Snail Shells), 4 (Calling Mountain), 5 (Cora Cora), 8 (Powerlines)<br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Do Not Play: None<br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Written by Zach Hill on 04\/18\/16 <\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Falconberry&#8217;s avant-folk will make you question our role in the natural world, and maybe even get you to talk to a pinecone or two.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12267,"featured_media":44313,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,3235,3230,181],"tags":[4819,4820,18,2080,3367,4255],"class_list":["post-44312","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music","category-music-reviews","category-new-music-rotation","category-rock-rotation","tag-dana-falconberry","tag-from-the-forest-came-the-fire","tag-music","tag-music-review","tag-rock-rotation","tag-zach-hill"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/falconberry_fromtheforest.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44312","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12267"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=44312"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44312\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/44313"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=44312"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=44312"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=44312"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
