a masterpiece.......2005-07-03

I first heard about this album by reading a stellar review on bradleysalmanac.com - curious, I picked up the CD. What I found was an amazing masterpiece that sounds like Jeff Buckley, bits of John Lennon, Leonard Cohen....but somehow sounds unique and refreshing in these times of over heralded indie acts (I'm looking at you pitchforkmedia). The lyrics are chilling (something pitchforks sophmoric review didn't seem to understand) but coming from a personal point of view. This band should have gotten the press Iron & Wine has been getting. I also recommend Honeychurch "makes me feel better" if you like this one.

Wow...simply wow.......2005-05-06

I had a chance to see these two in visalia at a very small venue, it was extremely intimate, His vocals are hauntingly beautiful and he could really teach some of the up and comers something about meaningful songwriting. Do not pass them up if they come through your town, its quite an experience.

A giant leap for Summer at Shatter Creek kind.......2005-04-21

I've been a fan of Summer at Shatter Creek's since the first record, which i love. I was expecting a bit more of the same mellow, trippiness, but this record...it's blown me away. I've had it in my player for a week straight now, and I'm just amazed. It has hints of other musicians/bands-Jeff Buckley, Radiohead, Elliott smith, etc., but it sounds totally unique. The harmonies are amazing, the production is stellar, songs great, too...I'm just really surprised and elated at how original and great this record is. Top notch.

Album Description

Ten songs of melodic, hook-laden, lo-fi indie melancholia in sparse guitar-and-vocal arrangements as well as full-on rock, with guitars and vocals reminiscent of Neutral Milk Hotel and Nirvana. Iowa Anvil has also been compared to Elliott Smith, Nick Drake, the Beatles, and Bright Eyes.

Acoustic Grunge.......2005-09-14

The Graze's debut album, Iowa Anvil, is a sort of amalgamation of early Nirvana/Soundgarden style grunge with a touch of Death Cab and a hit of Damien Rice. The lyrics are solid, not necessarily rhyming but simply doing what they want when they want, and the stories they tell are enjoyable.

I have to say, though, the music itself is where this album really shines. It really is a grunge style, but in a flavor that was really uncommon when grunge was popular. I mean, when one thinks of grunge, one generally thinks of distorted, electric guitars - and don't get me wrong, they show up a couple of times, and to great effect. But the guitar's being mainly acoustic lends this album a nice, mellow quality that most grunge doesn't have to offer. Now, that might not be someone's cup of tea; but it happens to be mine.

This is definitely a wonderful debut album, so if you enjoy grunge, and more mellow music, this cd is just about perfect for you.

Impressive overview of mid-Renaissance musical genres.......2006-07-28

If anyone makes a movie about the life of Habsburg Princess Margaret of Austria (1480-1530), they won't have to look far for a soundtrack - here it is. "Dulcis Melancholia" is a diverse compilation of Franco-Flemish music of the late 15th and early 16th century, covering the years Margaret lived and featuring several songs based on her poetry. The list of composers reads like a "who's who" of Renaissance masters: Josquin Desprez, Antoine Brumel, Pierre de la Rue, Heinrich Isaac, and Jacob Obrecht. Instrumental works by Luis Milan and other composers offer a change of pace from the polyphonic compositions. It's all performed by the Capilla Flamenca, a Dutch consort who navigate the various styles with panache.

The title, Dulcis Melancholia ("sweet melancholy") refers to the bittersweet life of Margaret, who experienced many trials and tribulations throughout her turbulent life. The songs are divided into four sections, each corresponding to an era in Margaret's life. The earlier works feature lively and lush instrumentation, signifying Margaret's eventful youth. As the record progresses, a capella numbers and solo instrumental pieces predominate, the sparse instrumentation underscoring the tragic events of Margaret's life: her rejection by the Dauphin of France, the death of her two husbands, and her own premature death.

Capilla Flamenca expertly segues between instrumentals, a capella works, and songs with both vocals and instrumentation. The varied arrangements evoke the spirit of Renaissance music, which was often composed "for any instruments available." The frequent juxtaposition of voices with instruments will no doubt stoke the Renaissance performance practice debate. Personally, I enjoy the mix of tone colors, which creates texture and enhances diversity.

Some selections are bound to tweak purists. The Milan songs, included to represent Margaret's marriage to a Spanish prince, were not published until after her death. Josquin's "Pluz Nulz Regrets" begins as a solo lute performance, with the vocals entering nearly four minutes into the song. Arguably anachronistic, the arrangement is nonetheless impressive.

With "Dulcis Melancholia," Capilla Flamenca has captured not only the life and times of Margaret, but the spirit of the Renaissance as well. This recording is an excellent starting point for anyone looking for an overview of mid-Renaissance musical genres.
