Siskiyou returns with Nervous, a majestic album of carefully constructed art rock built around songwriter and lead singer Colin Huebert's stacked acoustic guitars and intimate, whispery vocals. Siskiyou's sound has been previously dubbed a sort of 'Northern Gothic', conjuring cold winds and the life-saving warmth of temporary shelters and tiny hearth fires. With Nervous, the band continues to push beyond the crisp lo-fi intimacy of it's early work, and has forged it's most confident and finely-crafted recording to date. Album Tracks 1. Deserter 2. Bank Accounts And Dollar Bills (Give Peace A Chance) 3. Wasted Genius 4. Violent Motion Pictures 1. Jesus In The 70's 2. Oval Window 3. Nervous 4. Imbecile Thoughts 5. Babylonian Proclivities 6. Falling Down The Stairs
Most of the tunes on Keep Away the Dead were born at Mara Hall in Mara, BC (pop. 350) where bed tracks were laid down in the crisp air during the depth of winter. The arctic atmosphere of that empty, cavernous, hardwood structure was the perfect complement to Huebert's sensibility A tense and acute restraint; a shivering, biting, sometimes bitter rending of barebones, folk-inflected rock music. With the addition of Shaunn Watt and Peter Carruthers, Siskiyou has coalesced into a superb, incisive four-piece band, honed over the past year by extensive touring in Europe and Canada. Album Tracks 1. Keep Away the Dead 2. Where Does That Leave Me 3. Twigs and Stones 4. So Cold 5. Revolution Blues 6. Dear Old Friend 7. Not the Kind 8. Fiery Death 9. Sing Me to Sleep 10. Dead Right Now
