Richmond Fontaine - The High Country - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Limited colored vinyl LP pressing. Following their critically well received debut album, Seekers, in 2017 - Our Kingdom Undone sees Beyond Grace refining and redefining their sound into something that's simultaneously more intricate and more intense than ever before, combining conceptually ambitious songwriting and high octane heaviness in equal measure. Our Kingdom Undone's gestation period took place under a pall of social unrest and political uncertainty the world over, so it's perhaps no surprise that each of these eight songs is a cathartic scream of raw emotion and primal poetry. Full to the brim with lyrics that rage with unfettered fury and unbound frustration against the rise of isolationism, exploitation, rampant militarism, and religious indoctrination. Album Tracks 1. Dark Forest Doctrine 2. Barmecide Feast 3. Hive Mind 4. Factions Speak Louder Than Herds 5. The Price of Peace 6. Persona Non Grata 7. Fearmonger 8. Our Kingdom Undone

Reissue of this 2005 . The follow-up to the highly acclaimed Post to Wire is a quiet departure from the raucous, visceral send-ups that have made these Portland-based rockers a band to watch. Written at the Fitzgerald Casino in chief songwriter Willy Vlautin's hometown of Reno, this album is a stark collection of songs about the people who live in the shadows of a casino town. It contains the most vivid and compelling songs the band has written to date. It debuted at #13 on the UK Indie Chart in May, and Richmond Fontaine experienced the kind of praise rarely bestowed on any artist. InchThe most beautiful sad album of the yearInch - Q.
