Molehills out of Mountains
by Wilful Missing
If you haven't heard Wilful Missing's "Molehills out of Mountains" LP, listen to it now! The songs blend emotional and environmental themes with powerful imagery, and the musicianship is first rate.

Dan's craftsmanship in guitar playing and songwriting was clear on his debut album, but this one reveals new lyrical depths. My fave is "Pictures", for its honest story and fingerpicking wizardry.

Year and a Day E.P

The war on loudness starts here! Great dynamics. I also like the fact that Gary sings with his own voice, transcending his influences. Top musicianship too, from all involved.
