The Lonely Forest come from Anacortes, just a short drive from where I live, but I'd never heard them before this album, just released. Yes, me listening to an album from THE CURRENT YEAR!! Quick take from just a few listens: skip the first track, and the last track, but otherwise you get a U2/Coldplay thing filtered through the Death Cab for Cutie Northwest semi-emo over-earnest vocal style, yet performed without lasers or smoke bombs. Wow, I wrote that and I barely know what I mean... Unfortunately, the CD booklet was already missing, so I can't supply any more information (produced by Chris Walla of Death Cab??)
Anyway, thumbs up from this geezer!
