Hollow

The Handsome Family

A lush, hallucinatory collection of desert gothic tales. Reverb-heavy baritone vocals meet surrealist lyrics about the hidden mysteries of the natural world.

Moments Worth Listening For
The unexpected bloom of lush, psychedelic guitar textures that elevate the skeletal folk structure of Joseph
The way the backing vocals on Shady Lake create a shimmering, ethereal halo around the deep lead baritone
The transition into the final track Good Night where the arrangement strips back to a haunting, lullaby-like simplicity
