Pygmy Lush - Old Friends LP

The trouble with Pygmy Lush is their associations. The members of the group have been in an assortment of well regarded Virginia bands. Most of the bands focused on playing very heavy music. Pygmy Lush coming from a lineage including Malady and pg.99 retained a fetish for hardcore on their debut "BItter River". Numerous simple folk songs were also included on "Bitter River" hinting at the sound Pygmy Lush would grow into. It wasn't until the band recorded "Mount Hope" that they settled into being mainly a folk band minus the heavier parts. "Old Friends" the group's latest release seems to do even more to encourage that theory.
