Fragile State of Inbetween on CD

Rhys Marsh And The Autumn Ghost's debut album, 'The Fragile State Of Inbetween'. For this organic and lush affair, Rhys has drafted in an incredible amount of musicians to accompany him. Seventeen, in fact, taken from such bands as Jaga Jazzist, Anglagard and Anekdoten. On the record, which was two years in the making, you'll hear choirs of hushed voices, acoustic guitar, piano, double bass, fretless bass, three drummers, two flutes, trumpet, pedal steel, a string section and Mellotron. Yet, despite the potential for complete wall-of-sound syndrome, there's still an impressive amount of space. "Richly-orchestrated dramatic pop." Adresseavisen "Melancholic and complex music, filled with unexpected chord progressions, rich layers of Mellotron and emotionally-loaded vocals." Norway Rock Magazine "It may challenge your idea of what progressive music should sound like in 2008." Tarkus Magazine "Nick Drake is the obvious touchstone here, but Marsh doesn't sound like a clone. Instead, like kindred spirit Eric Matthews, Marsh is an unabashed fan of the same shimmering folk/pop sound and wants to adapt to the 21st century. Based on this beautiful record, he's succeeded handily." The Big Takeover
