Folky, indie, country-blues with and an ever-so-slight ambient quality is how I would describe the new Pygmy Lush record, Mount Hope. This may come of a bit of a surprise to those listening to this record hoping to hear Pg. 99, whose former members now play in this band.
A huge departure from their first record, Bitter River, which seemed to be somewhat of an experiment in a variety of genres and even featured a little bit of the old Pg. 99 punk. They seem to have found their style in the acoustic guitar and songs of a slower speed. This new record definitely has a sound comparable to Akron/Family and might be the perfect soundtrack for that "I'm tired of everything and I've given all hope" kind of feeling.
Give a try, you might like it
