RIYL: bucolics, experimental Americana, and Akron/Family's positivity

Megafaun - Gather, Form, and Fly

taking off on hometapes (2009)

The second album from this Durham, NC posse that used to play with Justin Vernon (a.k.a Bon Iver). Lots of prog-rockish country and noisy folk tunes. A big, bold record that I'm still digesting, but clearly deserves attention.

I once saw Megafaun as the backing band for Akron/Family at a show they opened with the Top Gun theme song. Unbeatable.
