5 out of 5 stars As delicate and lovely as a setting sun.......2002-12-12

I first heard about this on recommendation from some friends who knew how much I love Mojave 3. Apparently, they're friends with The Zephyrs, and Rachel Goswell (of Mojave 3) provides guest vocals on what, for me, is this album's most outstanding track, "Setting Sun." A little alt-country, a little shoegazer, The Zephyrs carve an emotional space filled with melody, longing, sadness and occasional pathos. It gives me hope that there may be more good ones out there yet.

5 out of 5 stars The sky WILL come down -- and it will be be beautiful........2002-03-05

This is my new favorite album. I saw them on Mogwai's (my favorite band) website, I heard Stargazer, and I was hooked. It pisses me off that music this sophisticated and gorgeous isn't released in the states. Whenever I listen to When The Sky Comes Down. . ., I feel like I'm driving through the country at night, when the stars are out and I'm the only one on the road. Some of the songs remind me of a non-Icelandic, folky version of Sigur Ros. But this music is 10 times more personal than Sigur Ros will ever be.

Buy this album, especially with the bonus tracks; "Urges" is one of the best songs on the album. Although they're on Mogwai's Rock Action label, The Zephrys sound nothing like them--they posses some of their beautiful, ambient qualities perhaps, but they have their own unique sound. I've never heard anything like The Zephyrs.

I urge you to make When The Sky Comes Down... a part of your collection. It'll make you feel hopeful, even through your worst days. Standout tracks: Setting Sun, The Green Tree, Paint Your House, Murder Of A Small Man, Urges, and of course Stargazer.

An incredible listening experience.
