Review

Spin (4/03, p.107) - "...Califone take their laptops to the pawnshop and rattle kitchen-drawer percussion like the Midwestern Latin Playboys..." - Grade: A-
Uncut (5/03, p.91) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...Rutili's voice sounds dredged from the same creek as Will Oldham....There's plenty of beauty..."
Magnet (4/03, p.84) - "...QUICKSAND is a more ambitious and confident document of Califone's ability to catapult old sounds into a new millennium. It at once grounds you in the roots of American music and propels you to the edge of technology and imagination..."
The Wire (4/03, p.49) - "...Picked out on close-miked, steel-strung guitars, the chord progressions are pregnant with blue notes..."

Title Note

Califone includes: Jim Becker (vocals, acoustic & electric guitar, fretless banjo, violin, Cajun accordion, bass, bells, triangle); Tim Rutili (vocals, guitar, electric piano, loops); Matt Fields (vocals, bass); Gina McLaughlin (vocals); Fred Lonberg-Holm (cello); Ben Massarella (organ, drums, slit gong, percussion, electronics); Joe Adamik (organ, drums); Graeme Gibson, Rebecca Gates (drums).

Recorded at Clava Studios, Chicago, Illinois.

This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.

While Califone may not have the profile of contemporaries like Wilco, Iron & Wine, or Calexico, their brand of experimental, sophisticated folk ranks alongside the work of those artists. Tim Rutili's offbeat yet resonant songwriting is stronger than ever on QUICKSAND/CRADLESNAKES, and the sonic detail and leftfield accompaniment are always intriguing. "Million Dollar Funeral" and "Michigan Girls" are among the album's several highlights.
