Califone Quicksand / Cradlesnakes

"...Califone take their laptops to the pawnshop and rattle kitchen-drawer percussion like the Midwestern Latin Playboys..." - Grade: A-
4 stars out of 5 - "...Rutili's voice sounds dredged from the same creek as Will Oldham....There's plenty of beauty..."
"...QUICKSAND is a more ambitious and confident document of Califone's ability to catapult old sounds into a new millennium. It at once grounds you in the roots of American music and propels you to the edge of technology and imagination..."
"...Picked out on close-miked, steel-strung guitars, the chord progressions are pregnant with blue notes..."
