HAPPY NEW YEAR FROM WH!
doug fir forest


While we were away hibernating for the holidays, some very generous individuals were kind enough to include White Hinterland on some of their end-of-the-year round-ups. Here are a few:

Some nice press culled over the year, too:

"Phylactery Factory is a summery delight; a fretful, deliriously happy shiver of a record. It sounds nothing and everything like nothing and everything you've heard before and will nestle quite happily in that arcane head of yours for months, if you let it slip that way." -PLAN B MAGAZINE "Gorgeous jazz folk…Timeless…This is a sublime recording!" -UNCUT MAGAZINE (****)DROWNED IN SOUND GIVES PHYLACTERY FACTORY 8/10NME GIVES PHYLACTERY FACTORY 8/10MOJO RISING: WHITE HINTERLAND
