The Clan Extends Its Cadence Of Mantras Dirges Prayers And Curses With Its Third Full-Length Release We Are All Hopeful Farmers We Are All Scared Rabbits Table Of The Elements . While The Group Enlarges The Form Compresses Into A Brambled Nexus Of Sound As Quaverous Organs And Guitars Humid Vocals And Florid Tape Manipulations All Intertwine. It's Their Most Song-Oriented Recording To Date The Tracks Functioning As Tightly-Clasped Fetishes And Buried Amulets Exerting A Phantasmic Pull On The Listener. Together The Musicians Proceed With Masterful Nuance And Inexorable Tension. It Is The Sound Of Effigy Mounds Slowly Rousing From Prehistoric Slumber. Badgerlore's Sound Is Distinctive Never Straying Too Far From Contemplative Meandering Psych-Folk. Not One Of The Four Pushes Their Particular Sound Upon The Group And The Perfect Blend Of All Four Of These Artists Coming From Their Very Different Background Makes Badgerlore Quite An Interesting Listening Experience. read less
