The Microphones - The Glow, Pt. 2 (2001)




Centered around Washington lo-fi mastermind Phil Evrum, The Microphones deliver stunning low key indie pearls with at times bizarrely odd arrangements. On their third studio album the band carefully waves a carpet of distorted organs, sloppy percussion and random noise around Elvrum's fragile acoustic poetry. The Glow Pt. 2 is full of beauty and madness - a raw yet intimate masterpiece.
