专辑简介
"A glorious, hallucinatory piece of work." - ALL MUSIC GUIDE
A Gilded Age signals the dawning of a new era for N&W. Selzer has long demonstrated the ability to craft exquisitely defined, sonically arresting songs, but with A Gilded Age (recorded at Type Foundry Studios), he helps Norfolk & Western flex their songwriting muscles with dramatic, singular results. The songs on A Gilded Age cascade dynamically and unrelentingly - elevating the long-form EP format to new heights - from the trademark Victrola opening to the positively invigorating, overdriven guitar and banjo attack of the title track. Perhaps more so than any band in recent memory, Norfolk & Western have distilled their strengths with a collection of songs so undeniably strong they are virtually assured a spot in the canon of indie-folk legends. The LP release of this album collects three new tracks: "Border, Oklahoma," previously found on the Centralia album, as well as covers of "Marie" by folk hero Townes Van Sandt and the unlikely "Seven Seas" by Echo & The Bunnymen.
