Graham Ulicny- Terry's Dolmen

Graham Ulicny's Terry's Dolmen is seven songs of heartland rock stripped to its beloved Tascam grain, free of studio artifice, the kind of close-feeling record that trusts a sharp riff to guide the way. Ben Hackett and Shane Justice McCord's clarinet and saxophone unspool through the arrangements like something ancient and leafy, a Sufjan-ish tenderness haunting the big songs, putting off the aura of an inexplicable stone monolith you stumble upon in a field.
