Track 3 is a rip/tribute to Danny Elfman's - Ice Dance from Edward Scissorhands....which I feel is a rip off of Saint-Saeans 'Aquarium'

The Good Good - Furrows.
Experimental folk-pop from Brooklyn -- which first raises suspicions regarding whatever hipsterism that might imply, but this album follows through. Reminds me a lot of the indiefolk intimacy of Microphones/Mt. Eerie. FCC CLEAN. Picks: 2, 5, 7, 12
1. Female vocals that nod towards 60sish folk, with some garage-rocky guitar in the middle that goes into whimsical vocal scales and childish (not in a bad way) chanting rhymes about Alligator Pie. [2:33]
**2. Chimes and child voices/laughing along to a story read aloud, with a great, simple tune in asynchronous reminiscent of summer camp. [4:15]
3. Very nice music box with crooning female aria and intimate whispers. [1:16]
4. Almost an electro-pop keyboard and back-beat with female vocals and jazzy screeching woodwinds through the second half. [2:28]
**5. Acoustic guitar with very pretty male vocals and Mt. Eeriesque Woodwinds [1:58]
6. Faster, with more insistent drums and flute sounds and instrumental playfulness. [2.00]
**7. Guitar is much more get-up-and-move rockier. Infectious vocals. [2:07]
8. Quirky ode to the joys of the forest. I want to hang out with these guys. [1:10]
9. Experimental/jazzy instrumental with woodwinds + drum, humming guitar. [2:04]
10. Short piece with female singy la-la vocals and electronic clapping beat. [1:49]
11. Cacophonous instruments with very close female spoken piece about rotting underground. Garage drums and guitar. [2:54]
**12. Organy keyboard and playful guitar / vocal melodies. [1:35]
13. Beefheart-esque stop-start rock band instrumental move into indie-sound. [2:00]
