'All My Friends Are Funeral Singers' is the record that the great 'Roots and Crowns' hinted at. The songwriting is fleshed out, the musical vision is boiling over, the sonic experimentation is indulgent and dense, yet there's a great cohesion, a sense of purpose and a newfound focus to this Califone effort. Never has the band felt so vibrant & so alive.
