I finally finished the Hymns for a Dark Horse album by the Bowerbirds, even though I've been listening to the music I hadn't taken the time to hear the lyrics. It's a rare event when a whole album can resonate with your center, it's as if they are taking the words right out of my mouth. This albums really prods at the question of humanities place in the world and how connected we are to the natural environment. Their lyrics are an inspiration to my own writing and the apocryphal feeling their music leaves me is unique.
