...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead releases, what they hope to be, their magnum opus in the vein of '70s rock conceptual albums with Tao of the Dead.

...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead releases, what they hope to be, their magnum opus in the vein of '70s rock conceptual albums with Tao of the Dead.
An echo-y gothic album, Violet Cries, by Esbon and the Witch marks a spooky, lingering turn for the Brighton trio.
Finally, the lovely trio of ladies Wailin' Jennys puts out 12 glimmering tracks that at once are beautiful and new and also old-timey and rustic on Bright Morning Stars.
