Thumbtacks And Glue Woodpigeon SKU: NONG81LP Barcode: 5020422098114 14.00 £14.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Fierce Panda Released Date: 20th February 2013 Buying Format: 1LP Includes Download Code Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info Expert lovers of gently bruised alt.folk.rock tumblings could well have first clocked Woodpigeon in 2006 with the “winningly understated” (BBC) debut album ‘Songbook’. Then came lovingly crafted long players with titles like ‘Treasure Library Canada’, ‘Die Stadt Muzikanten’ and the aforementioned ‘Balladeer’. As well as swapping continents since the release of the latter Woodpigeon has toured with Patrick Wolf, Andrew Bird and Junip and quietly, studiously gone about his business with an elegance which befits his winningly understated nature. ‘Thumbtacks And Glue’ rolls out the fulsome red carpet, strings and all. Backed at various points by mellotron, violin, harpsichord, oboe and French horn, as well as the more traditional rock ‘gear’ and heaps of backing “singings”, here is Woodpigeon in his creative element: large of heart, subtle of melody and never afraid to fray a nerve or two, judging by the way the pluckily intelligent ‘Robin Song’ sounds like a fraught Death Cab and the discordant squiggles of ‘The Saddest Music In The World’ make like an irked Grandaddy. Elsewhere you may well be able to hear whispered snatches of Elliot Smith, of Simon & Garfunkel, of Badly Drawn Boy…of men with their hearts in the right place, their hats on their heads and their art at the top of the agenda. “This is Arcade Fire with ration books and gas masks, or Elliott Smith fronting Sparklehorse. Stunning, subtle and romantic” – NME “Delightful, poetic and effortlessly gorgeous” – THE WORD “**** It’s bloody marvelous.” -SUNDAY TIMES “**** An inspiring meditation on exile and return.” -THE GUARDIAN “**** Seductive.” -MOJO “**** Melodic and affecting.” -Q “Absolutely majestic… this is the best album to come out of Canada since Funeral. 5/5” -ARTROCKER “Hamilton’s delightfully dour and lovelorn lyrics and sprightly, sweetly mellow music, makes the morse seem wholly palatable … accomplished, quietly intelligent, playful and really rather enchanting.” -BBC Artist Woodpigeon Genre Americana / Country , Folk Label Fierce Panda Buying Options 1LP Includes Download Code Format 1LP , Includes Download Code Condition New Country United Kingdom Track Listings 1.
