Hallucinatory alt.country for whiskey drinkers. Best for sipping bourbon to, not for a tequila party. A set of eerie dream songs, creeping feedback ballads, and harmonized folk songs. A reverb-tinged night by the river.

Details:
Hallucinatory alt.country for sleepy whiskey drinkers. The Arizona purveyors of "Dustcore" have released their debut CD "Spider Lake", an album full of dreamy rustic-noir songs and reverb-tinged odes. Dripping with alt. country and folk influence, it's also an album that pop and rock fans can raise a drink to. Wormwood Brothers inhabit a world filled with Cosmic Americans and down-on-their-luck dreamers. The band named themselves after wormwood, a poisonous ingredient in the ancient drink Absinthe.

If you like artists like Magnolia Electric Company, Built to Spill, Gram Parsons, Wilco, Big Star, Magnolia Electric Company, or My Morning Jacket, you will certainly like Wormwood Brothers.

Think about it this way: if you were feeding ravens some bread, the first one would squawk out "Tangled Up in Blue". Then, throwing out a piece to the next raven, he'd squawk "Waterloo Sunset!" Then the whole lot of ravens slowly start waltzing and singing "Cinnamon Girl." That doesn't mean Wormwood Brothers sing like ravens, this is only a simple example of the concoction that is Spider Lake.
