About
This record marks the final instalment in Ben Cooper's trilogy of deep, thoughtful albums chronicling a fictional 19th century Southern family, the Northcote. It's not as pretentious as it sound, with previous LPs The Roots and The Branches full of unassuming, gently beautiful songs in a modern folk vein, charting an often-cryptic course through the Faulknerian melodramas of this clan. The Leaves sticks to the template, with several songs sounding like Sufjan Stevens circa 2005. Cooper's music has an emotional impact that is rare in this exhausted genre, exhibited by the exquisite "Rivers in the Dust" and "Midnight". .
