We also found out from the Blood Bank <span class="caps">EP</span> earlier this year that he&rsquo;s not afraid to experiment. Still, I don&rsquo;t think anyone could predict this one. Well, it kind of depends on your prior knowledge of Collections of Colonies of Bees, with whom this is an every day experience. But what is quite exciting about this is the new life that Vernon literally breathes into this band, which gives it enough distinction from the two bands that form this one, but also makes for quite a thrilling, pleasing&nbsp;listen.</p> <div class="field field-type-userreference field-field-author"> <div class="field-label">Display author:&nbsp;</div> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <a href="/user/17029" property="dc:creator cc:attributionName" rel="foaf:maker sioc:has_creator cc:attributionURL" title="View Adam Turner-Heffer">Adam Turner-Heffer</a> </div> </div> </div> <p><a href="http://slashtheseats.com/node/17514" target="_blank">read more</a></p> http://slashtheseats.com/node/17514#comments Reviews Album reviews Justin Vernon Unmap Volcano Choir Wed, 07 Oct 2009 20:19:18 +0000 Stephen McLeod 17514 at http://slashtheseats.com
