Lately I have been enveloped in the album "Hospice" created by the Brooklyn band "The Antlers."
The Antler began as the solo project of Peter Silberman, releasing two solo albums "Uprooted" and "In the Attic of the Universe," before forming a trio with Michael Lerner and Darby Cicci. The newly formed band self released "Hospice" in 2009, before signing with French Kiss Records who later remastered the album.
"Hospice" is a concept album narrating the story of a man who is witnessing his lover dying of cancer in hospice. Both sad and beautiful, I highly recommend it.
You can stream Hospice in its entire length on myspace
My favorite tracks: Two, Wake.
Enjoy
