Daddy Gangloff says:
The new Wisconsin-based duo lineup of the Spiral Joy flexes its wings in a beautiful (and very limited) cassette release from the earjerk label. Recorded at WORT studios in late summer '08, the music moves through bells, bowls, gongs and harmoniums, a call to arms heard in a dream of waking

Earjerk says:
