Would u like some Spiked Mulled Cider? or Sleepytime Tea?
One year after Wilco released Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, another Chicago band, named Califone, released a sister album of sorts with Quicksand/Cradlesnakes. It’s a bit artsier. A bit less commercial. BUT, it’s every bit as good. I’d compare it to the warmth that spreads throughout your body while sipping some spiked mulled cider at a Fall bonfire. It’s intimate and casual. Relaxed and friendly. This is the kinda stuff you enjoy with just a few friends. The volume’s not too loud. Nope, it’s just right. And its conversation is not too demanding so that every now & again you can center yourself. Take in the Fall breeze. The crackle-pop of the fire. Bits of its embers floating aloft past the last remnants of your fading & graying garden. What I’m trying to say is that Califone makes the sorta music that can warm your soul. My original title for this little blurb was going to be Sleepytime Tea. Because the music is sleepy & languid, yet like that little bear on the tea jacket, good-spirited & inviting. The kind of music that makes you want to say “hearth” and “heather” if you follow me.
Totally check them out if you like stuff like Yo La Tengo's Painful or The Dirty Three's Horse Stories. [First added to this chart: 10/24/2024]
