Old Canes' second album Feral Harmonic is bold and loud, presenting folk and traditional music melded with new ideas, crafted with new intensity, and with the rulebook of contemporary recording thrown out the window. "Production value, fidelity, a low noise floor, whatever, are all beside the point." says songwriter Chris Crisci (also frontman for Appleseed Cast). "The only things I care about are the idea and the energy... Music loses out when the focus is on slick production, and not on expressing what matters most in a song."
