Half-Handed Cloud Stowaways In Cabinets Of Surf We Live-Out In Our CD

Asthmatic Kitty Records presents the fifth Half-Handed Cloud full-length album: As Stowaways in Cabinets of Surf, We Live-out in Our Members a Kind of Rebirth, or Stowaways for short. Connected with the lyrical tradition of 19th Century American hymns such as "Shall We Gather at the River?" "Are You Washed in the Blood of the Lamb?" and "There Shall Be Showers of Blessing," these tunes splash about in cavernous spaces opened up by irregularly measured rhythms and pocket-orchestra arrangements integrated with creaky pianos, sound-loops, a tugboat of a church organ, guitars, and billowing banjos.
