4...according to our Dave on Thu 10 Dec, 2009.

The Cascades' 'Horse Feathers' 7" is out. It's a haunting melancholic affair with an extra emphasis on the melancholy. It's quite interesting though, with an almost classical arrangement. It does sound well folky as well. Both songs are pretty good, though It made me want to put on a heavy jumper grow a beard and fashion a shack out of trees. The sleeve is great too, a hand drawn stylish cover that makes you want to weep…almost. It's on Kill Rock Stars and it's flouncing into your mind palace now(ish).

• Horse Feathers' debut album on Kill Rock Stars, ‘House
With No Home’, garnered excellent press as expected, but also
sold five times as much as their previous release. The
band's constant touring to packed houses has created a quiet
groundswell of support which buoyed the band up to its current
position as one of KRS's breakthrough bands of 2009.
• This 7” is another delicious morsel to tide the fans over
while the band finishes recording its follow-up to ‘House
With No Home’, due in April 2010.
• Press Quotes: “Horse Feathers sound contemporary rather than
nostalgic, yet retain a downfrom-the-mountain sensibility as if they
come into town once a month to stock up on provisions and record
a track or two” – Pitchfork.
