ELLIOTT, MAX
THE NATURE O' NATURE (SACRED BONES)
Sparsely arranged folk from Absinthe Minds member Max Elliott. The central Wisconsin singer/songwriter's dark acid folk hovers close around the lone guitar/vocal arrangements with subtle percussive accompaniment at points.
This is not the folk of Jewel or Devendra Banhardt.think along the lines of Beard of Stars-era T-Rex or Simon Finn's Pass The Distance.
Raspy voiced tales of death, woe, and redemption. If you were quick enough to catch the 13-song cassette on Jerkwave last year you know what you're in for; if you missed it, don't sleep on this one.
