Arbouretum reaches a new peak of focused craftsmanship with Let It All In, released via Thrill Jockey in 2020. This tenth studio album finds the Baltimore-based outfit refining their signature sound—a "sun-dappled" blend of Americana, folk-rock, and heavy psychedelia that carries a weary, hypnotic majesty.
Recorded with a clearheaded intensity, the album balances earth-bound grooves with transcendent, semi-mystic exploration. Frontman Dave Heumann’s plaintive alto voice guides the listener through a landscape of Eastern guitar modes and "hill-people songs," drawing comparisons to the raw, alchemical energy of Neil Young and the psychedelic sensibilities of The Doors.
Key Highlights:
- "Let It All In": An epic 11-minute title track featuring a propulsive, Krautrock-inspired chug.
- "High Water Song": A Van Morrison-esque strut complete with a sharp, Moondance-inspired horn section.
- "No Sanctuary Blues": A standout moment blending Middle Eastern raga influences with a powerful vocal performance.
- "A Prism In Reverse": A brilliant and "sweet procession" reminiscent of a medieval waltz.
Whether it’s the honky-tonk swing of "High Water Song" or the sun-laced bounce of "Buffeted by Wind," Let It All In is a transportive experience. It is a must-have for fans of Woods, Wolf People, and Earth, and a definitive statement from one of the most underrated bands in modern rock.
