Debut by a new string trio of Pelt and Elkhorn veterans with the wild card contributions of Kaily Schenker, creating a new variant of supremely pleasing acoustic-psychedelic-drone-Americana etc. "Lullaby Summer Field" is an aptly named gentle rise, with Sheppard's fingerpicked 12 string snaking through waves of elongated fiddle and cello. "Triode Freedom" follows a darker minor-key ostinato with Gangloff's keening melody over the top. "Freedom Universal Blues" starts as a dirge and builds to a transition into the traditional "The Squirrel is a Pretty Thing," with Kaily Schenker's droning harmonium and vocal delivering a riveting, epic version of what's usually cast as a short "kids"/folk-tale song (e.g. Peggy Seeger's version). Originally this album was released by the band in an instantly sold-out edition of 100 for sale at their shows. This updated version includes a new insert by Kaily, a new cut by John Golden and a thick pressing from Smashed in Chicago.
