Gracious Tide, Take Me Home

Description

Deluxe 10th Anniversary vinyl reissue of the indie rock band’s acclaimed debut album, which has been meticulously remastered at Abbey Road studios and comes with five previously unreleased tracks recorded during the original sessions. Fusing the most fragile and graceful end of the folk music spectrum to the most luminous properties of cinemascope rock, ‘Gracious Tide, Take Me Home’ used a smorgasbord of instruments (guitars, violin, mandolin, piano, synths, glockenspiels, even a kalimba) to paint a variety of beautiful vistas, from the ambient ‘Ships in the Rain’ to the galloping ‘A Kingdom’, from the six-minute layers of ‘The Places We Call Home’ to the skeletal 73-second finale ‘Not Going Back to the Harbour’.
