I've gotten a little back into Marissa Nadler these days, and found a particularly shiny gem in "Feathers." It's nothing like the classics "River of Dirt." This modern-day Stevie Nicks gives us something with more whimsy in this brand of folk. "Feathers" is something that's very delicate with the light plucking of an acoustic guitar, while at the same time being a little creepy with swirling vocal work and background voices that place this deep in the forest of a classic Disney movie. Yeah, I know I made the same comparison last night, but I must be on a roll. "Feathers" is the single female counterpart to Fleet Foxes' work, with something a little darker. Needless to say, I'm a fan.
