Feathers Discography of CDs

Feathers discography The instrumental trio Feathers (not to be confused with other artists of the same name), consisting of keyboard player/guitarist Eddie Alonso, drummer Matt Crum, and bassist Eric Rasco, issues the second of a projected trilogy of EPs with Synchromy, which is informed by a rock sensibility out of the late '60s or early '70s.

The cover is the first thing to grab one's notice: it apes Current 93's Earth Covers Earth cover -- and they did theirs as a faux tribute to the Incredible String Band's Hangman's Beautiful Daughter LP. (Come to think of it, Banhart's Cripple Crow did a similar things...hmmm). Ultimately, it's the music that counts and these eight musicians do create as a collective -- song titles are credited only by first names and no instrument credits are given. Musically, one can hear everything form the original Tyrannosaurus Rex's cosmic flower power Brit folkiness to Donovan's dark gentleness to the more ambiguous stridency of ISB themselves, albeit in a far gentler manner.
