Roots & Crowns - Califone. Лента с персональными рекомендациями и музыкальными новинками, радио, подборки на любой вкус, удобное управление своей коллекцией. Roots & Crowns is the sixth studio album by American indie rock band Califone. It was released on October 10, 2006, on Thrill Jockey. The LP version of the album contains different artwork. The song The Orchids is a cover of the Psychic TV song of the same name. Pitchfork placed Roots & Crowns at number 168 on its list of top 200 albums of the 2000s. Roots & Crowns at . Heron King. The guys in Califone are on a roll. Heron King Blues was one of the most interesting albums of 2004, and Roots & Crowns continues to build on their unique sound. On one hand, Califone's songs are pretty, melodic and acoustic more often that not drawing musically from blues, folk, and Appalachia. On the other hand, they're radical experiments using feedback, noise, electronics and unfamiliar instruments and sounds to create sometimes otherworldly settings for their pretty songs. Roots and Crowns is Califone's most sophisticated record to date, a natural- if lighter- extension of 2004's Heron King Blues, and a coherent aesthetic declaration which is even more of a triumph considering it was recorded in chunks with new gear, after frontman Tim Rutili packed up for California and the band's instruments were raided during. their last tour. Califone have always been stupidly underappreciated, and the further we stumble into the 21st century, the more this music starts to feel both familiar and necessary: Roots and Crowns is bluesy and soulful without reverting to revivalist schtick, and experimental without relying on blind cut-and-pasting. Listen free to Califone Roots & Crowns Pink & Sour, Spider's House and more. 13 tracks 48:20. Album 2006 13 Songs. Roots & Crowns is the sound of a pawn shop coming to life after dark, an avant-folk symphony of creaky floorboards and short-circuiting gadgetry. But drowsy-voiced frontman Tim Rutili keeps his cool as everything around him goes bump in the night: On Pink & Sour, he unleashes a cavalcade of buzzing guitars and swirling synths over a rumbling West African groove, all while cooing smooth harmonies.

Califone Format: Audio CD. The fifth proper album by the Chicago-based roots-loving group is their slowest, weirdest, and best. Some of these hazy songs are pretty little pop jams, while others are more experimental things stitched together haphazardly, all the wires showing. If you want to hear a group that pushes the envelope while never forgoing the pleasure principle, Califone is exactly that
