20周年紀念版加收一張透綠色的透明膠,收錄未發行的LIVE版本及DEMO。 委內瑞拉裔的Devendra Banhart在2000年左右一出道就迷倒眾生,和Vashti Bunyan、Joanna Newsom、Coco Rosie同屬”Weird Folk”、迷幻民謠,這張專輯的必殺曲〈Heard Somebody Say〉、〈Santa Maria De Feira〉、〈Little Boys〉還有聽起來相當鬧的也很值得一聽!當年在Pitchfork Media得到8.4高分。
Can you believe it? Devendra Banhart Cripple Crow - originally released by XL in 2005 - is turning 20 years old. This was the 5th album from the Venezuelan American artist who is considered the pioneer of the "Freak Folk" and "New Weird America" movements. To celebrate - Devendra has compiled a reissue of the out of print release that features a 3rd Bonus LP (on Clear Green Smoke!) featuring 9 bonus tracks, including 1 B-Side, 5 previously unreleased demos, 2 previously unreleased live tracks, and 1 unearthed smash hit from the recording sessions. This release is the first on his newly created Heavy Flowers label.The album received a "Best New Music" 8.4 review from Pitchfork upon its release. The release date will fall 1 day prior to the actual 20th Anniversary, which will be the first time Devendra is early for anything. Now THAT is something to celebrate!
