HOUNDSTOOTH-NO NEWS FROM H

Vinyl LP pressing. 2015s No News From Home is the second album from Portland, Oregon quartet Houndstooth and the follow-up to Ride Out the Dark. That record was labeled quot;one of 2013s all too overlooked delightsquot; by Spin while their hometown Portland Mercury called it quot;an extraordinarily good album, a perfect representation of the bands trademark balancing of ease and passion.quot; News is an altogether more mature record that widens the bands sound: From Velvets-style churners to shimmering, breezy, love songs, all penned by songwriting duo John Gnorski and Katie Bernstein.
