A beautiful mix of pop and progressive, calm and storm.

Winter Storm Warning is one of the best CDs I've
heard in the last few years. It reminds me of
two of Brian Eno's classic albums from the 70s:
Another Green World and Before and After Science.
Like those albums, Winter Storm Warning is a mix
of "songs" and instrumentals, acoustic and electric,
pop and progressive, serenity and aggression, calm
and storm. Some of the tracks are begging to be
incorporated into the soundtrack of an independent
film (one set in the American or Canadian West and
directed by someone like Atom Egoyan). In my opinion,
tracks 1-7 are the highlight of the CD. They fit
together beautifully, one flowing right into the next.

This is really excellent work, genuine and evocative. Rest assured that if you like the samples available here, you will not be dissapointed with the rest of the CD, and plenty more delights and surprises await you. The musicianship is very strong and sincere, bringing real music to life without a trace of ego-driven superfluous flashiness. Folk and Prog sensibilities integrated seemlessly without resorting to gimicky cliches, resulting in music that stands apart on it's own, owing allegiance to no genre and having no sense of "patched together" styles.
