It took two years and three different studios, but the new album from Cleveland folk/rock quintet The Dreadful Yawns is finally here. And now that they've finally reached this point, the band doesn't look quite the same. Throughout the recording of May release Rest, four of the five original band members quit, leaving just principal singer/songwriter Ben Gmetro and four completely new bandmembers.
The making of the album was so drawn out and mismatched studio-wise that it really came through in the music. Throughout the album, the band transforms themselves from indie folk to country to experimental and back to the original folk. "You've Been Recorded" a catchy country-influenced pop song that begs to be followed by "Changing States." "Due South" is a beautiful ballad, and "We Go Up" is an experimental-ambient track. If you like what you hear, buy Rest here.

Also, I'll post a Kate Bush track that I have been digging lately. That violin gives me chills..
