Awesome unique American artistry

The Handsome Family are one of the most unique and gifted duos you will ever hear. The sound is drawn from pure American traditional folk/country/bluegrass melded with alternative sensibilities and set against words that could have been penned by Poe. Pure genius. I own each of their albums and this is the best. If you love Cash and the Carter's while also appreciating Uncle Tupelo, and the Stooges--this is for you. If not, try it anyway. It is worth a listen!
