The phrase cellar door is one of the most beautiful phrases in the English language, according to J.R.R. Tolkien.[relevant?]
The Austin Chronicle wrote that the "rogues' gallery of miscreants and misanthropes dart among simple instrumentation (synth, guitar, drums) as Vanderslice channels their tales."[1] Exclaim! noted that "as the content gets darker, the music grows strangely pretty, with delicate guitar, bells and his distinctive big, weird drum sound."[7]
All tracks written by John Vanderslice, except the lyrics for Pale Horse, adapted from Shelley's The Masque of Anarchy.
