A Chorus of Storytellers

by The Album Leaf

Overview

For his fifth album, A Chorus of Storytellers, the Album Leaf mastermind Jimmy LaValle decided to make some changes to the old formula his solo project stuck with. Most notably, LaValle recorded the album with a live band, rather than going at it alone with the help of a series of contributors. The result comes off feeling more alive and organic than his previous work, while maintaining the blend of ambient electronics and careful, post-rock layering that will definitely please fans of past records from the Album Leaf. ~ Gregory Heaney
