Press Reviews latest... With spaced and drifting guitar rock that spreads out like a sunset, bringing to mind bands like Scenic, Friends of the Library paint a somber picture of an instrumental America. This is driving and passionate, spread out between the oceans, lanscapes, as music. Sometimes vocals whisper in, bringing the sound around to a slo-core feel. Picture Low or Cediene at their slower moments. There're hints of some Dirty Three dynamics going on, too, with the guitar getting almost as passionate as Warren Ellis' violin. Sad, poetic pictures of a normal life are hidden in the lyrics, and the drums hit liek minimal punctuation between sentences: it's moody and moving and heart-breaking. This music hits like the last rays of sun on a summer's eve, but it's still as sparse and as cool as the first breath of snow. by Marcel Feldman The Big Takeover: Issue
