A collection of clippings from The Handsome Family album 'Last Days of Wonder'."An unqualified triumph" - Uncut"a collection of mini masterpieces" - The Independent On Sunday"they imply the wild things at civilisation's edge - brilliant!" - Mojo"songs of weirdness and wonder, set in a half wild, half urban, entirely mysterious place" - The Guardian"beautifully eerie - a wonderful album" - Daily Telegraph "words that in their everyday surrealism have no parallel in contemporary writing...it's music that mines the deep veins of fatalism in the Appalachian voice" - Greil Marcus - Granta"music that moves forward by turning the clock back - haunting, primal and strangely heroic" - The Times
