Through the Trees was the Handsome Family's breakthrough album, garnering enough attention and sales that they were finally able to quit their day jobs and focus on music full-time. The group subsequently toured the . and Europe, while critics on both sides of the Atlantic went nuts for the Sparks' clever, brooding songs.

and then you play a tune like the soft synth and wistfully sung ‘Tonight I Went Out Walking’ and this even sounds a little bit like TP. In fact I’d go as far to say, as lovely as those vocals are, it’s the atmospheres the instrumental backdrops conjure that define this release. A hypnotic and quietly sinister collection of lullabies? This definitely has a certain gothic quality that sets it apart from the other alt country.

In the world of the Handsome Family, it would appear that the glass is half full. The only problem is that the glass is either upside down or shattered on the floor. Riddled with dark and morbid tales of suburbia, murder, and the demise of carrying pigeons, the baker's dozen offerings seem animal-oriented, but still teem with an eerie old-time country & western sense of foreboding. Although the first track, "The Snow White Diner," seems uplifting with its "Layla"-like intro, the album waltzes along with keyboards and basic bare-bones accompaniment . It is an album of transcendence, of touching the divine, if only for a moment, through our love of someone else, even if he is a katydid. The Handsome Family - Singing Bones (2003) 320 kbps. 01.
