The Zephyrs - When The Sky Comes Down It Comes Down On Your Head

The Zephyrs brand of slowed down alt-country can best be described as taking Mojave 3 and putting it through a blender on ice at very low speeds. Although this odd description may sound bad, trust me in saying this is some beautiful, albeit slow, music coming from Scotland. If you think you might be hearing some familiar voices lulling from your speaker, well you will be correct. Refer to the track 'Setting Sun' for a beautiful dose of Rachel Goswell in an almost Mojave 3 atmosphere. Adele Bethel of Arab Strap is also found lending a hand on this album. This is the perfect summer evening music to lay back on the lounger, and slowly nurse a few beers.

Hi Stockton

I can't upload that big anymore..
The files are too big for the 100M cutoff most of these free servers now have. I had filecroc for that reason, but the site died.
