Whale-core

So after a long night of struggling with some accounting homework, I lay down and listened to Mount Eerie's "Song Islands Vol. 2" through a pair of headphones, which was a fairly lovely and relaxing experience. Formerly known as The Microphones, Mount Eerie's Phil Elverum uses the recording process as another instrument, and listening to his music through headphones is really the way to go. Organic and intimiate songwriting, unlike anything else out today, draws you into its atmosphere of nature and wonder.
