A Crow Looked At Me

by Mount Eerie

March 24 (P.W. Elverum & Sun)

Phil Elverum's latest album as Mount Eerie follows 2015's Sauna. Don't expect a cheerful set, as the material on Crow finds Elverum dealing with the recent death of his wife, Geneviève Castrée. In fact, it was recorded in the room where she died, using many of her own instruments.

LISTEN:	"Real Death"
WATCH:	"Ravens"
