Laughter Fills Our Hollow DomeOriginally published in Verbicide issue #5

A cornucopia of instruments are incorporated into this album, producing the mellowest indie pop lounge music I’ve ever heard. I’d even hasten to dub this style “bedtime rock,” as it’s calming effect could lull a person to sleep were it not for the captivating, other-worldly melodies emitted forth from the organs, keyboards, pianos, chimes, and trumpets which compliment vocalist Chris Barth’s gentle 60’s folk rock crooning. Very unique.
