ARBOR LABOR UNION - Out To Pasture LP

Store favourites return!

"ARBOR LABOR UNION are no strangers to the power of transmutation. The Atlanta quartet has alchemized their sound since 2016’s distortion-soaked I Hear You (Sub Pop Records) into a mystical concoction of Punk-informed weirdo Southern Rock, they lovingly refer to as 'Transcendental Twang.' "

Stretching out from purple dawn (“Patch of Violet”) to cicada twilight (“Spittle of the Morning Moon”) like Whitman laying on his back observing the dew drop worlds collected on shards of green swords (“Hidden in a Drop of Dew”), to the topographic map of the stars as witness/ dull mirror ,reflecting the constellation of the human body (“Zodiac Man”). To the cloud disappear / cloud evaporate canned heat boogie hymnal of “Clear View.” The prayer is answered and the sun pokes the light through again. A voice in the forest calls out blindly. She lets her hair down and answers, calling him back to her in the way she knows how. A CSNY seasoned skillet of guitar fried taters (“Repunzel”). Out to pasture indeed. More bound and freer than ever. From the stump again to sky, ARBOR LABOR UNION. As the leaves fall.
