Sangre De Muerdago - Deixademe Morrer No Bosque (2013)

The second album from this band from Spain.

The band is a one-man-band with Pablo Ursusson on bodhran, tin whistle, acoustic guitars, hurdy gurdy and vocals.

He got help from a handful of guests who added classic guitars, violin, cello and vocals.

The self-titled debut album from 2010 were full of pretty lush folk music from the Galician region in Spain. Some would also label the music as neofolk.

Pablo very much continues down the same route on this album, the follow up album. 

The difference is that the music here is much more naked than on the debut album. It is acoustic and the songs are pretty much naked to the bone.

The melodies are decent enough. But this album still feels like a step in the wrong direction based on the hopes the debut album gave us.

This one hour long album is still a half decent album but nothing more than that. 

1.5 points
