The name alludes to a process of constant questing that is part of Arbouretum's raison d'etre, what Heumann describes as \"a sense of religiosity that is not tied down to a particular moral or ecclesiastical approach, but rather proto-religious feelings such as awe in the face of something greater.\" In this case, that \"something greater\" is the music itself and\/or the source thereof. \u003ci\u003eRites Of Uncovering\u003c\/i\u003e was recorded in three main sessions: at Rove studios in Shelbyville, KY by Paul Oldham in September 2004; at Magic Shop in New York City with Matt Boynton in September 2005; and with Jeff Duncan at Two East Audio in Baltimore. Some overdubs, including vocals, were done at Soma Studios in Chicago with John McEntire. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLP - The LP has been freshly cut and pressed on virgin vinyl, packaged with insert and free download coupon. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thrill Jockey","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50410216227147,"sku":"367838","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/07033aa2-7433-4947-89cc-6304095ece20_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726640438"},{"product_id":"let-it-all-in","title":"Let It All In","description":"\u003cp\u003eArbouretum’s mystic folk-rock uses English folk, country blues, Americana and 70s psychedelia as touchpoints in their singular and distinctive sound and they’ve perfected the craft of storytelling, using a delicate interplay of melodies and prosaic lyrics. \u003ci\u003eLet It All In\u003c\/i\u003e is their most accomplished and evocative album yet. Guitarist and vocalist Dave Heumann’s melodies and solos remain a central focus bolstered by the hypnotic rhythms of bassist Corey Allender and drummer Brian Carey, enhanced by Matthew Pierce’s substantial yet understated keyboard figures. Each song a vivid scene or tale; Heumann’s deep sense of spirituality and command of storytelling through myth and metaphor transports the listener to another world and time. \u003ci\u003eLet It All In\u003c\/i\u003e is as instantly arresting as it is deeply reflective, with layers of sound and metaphor to unravel and interpret in their own way. It is a beautiful album that lives in and reflects the present moment while sounding as if it were forged in another era. Invoking nature as a backdrop for exploring humanity’s relationship to time, history, and the present socio-political climate, often highlighting water as a ubiquitous if often unconscious presence in our lives. It acts as a subtle connecting thread through each piece’s imagined landscapes, as well as taking on a symbol for change and spirit. The group has always centered around Heumann’s remarkable voice and songwriting. His skill as a vocalist and guitar player have led to playing with artists such as Cass McCombs, Will Oldham, and many others. Let It All In is an invitation to jump into an album rich with timeless elegance. Their live shows and the otherworldliness of their music have made Arbouretum a cultish band. Their profound music endures and rewards fans both old and new. Arbouretum has added another exceptional work to their catalog that will weather changing fashions and reward those who explore their entirely unique world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thrill Jockey","offers":[{"title":"Blue | LP","offer_id":50776316346699,"sku":"1085754","price":29.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/f717284e-fede-474b-ac6d-c1606a0df22d_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1730977517"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/collections\/test_ab1461c7_thumbnail_4096_655f70b6-2250-41b6-b994-b34dc44ba8fb.jpg?v=1726640418","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/collections\/arbouretum.oembed","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
