Scribblers Music Review

Bonnie “Prince” Billy makes an appearance on the eight-song alt-folk album Where In Our Woods by Elephant Michah. It’s an appealing thump-and-strum sound, laid-back but not calm. “Rare Beliefs”s starts with a quiet rumble and stays still, but not without menace. “Demise of the Bible Birds” may be the quickest and most sprightly of the eight songs, but even it has that drag-leg Tom Waits feel beneath its peppy instrumental sections and higher-register vocals. There’s a sad wail beneath this whole album that’s the very definition of “haunting.”
