All Things Are Quite Silent

Steeleye Span's latest album "All Things Are Quite Silent" is a charming blend of traditional folk music with a modern twist that will have you dancing in your Doc Martens. From the first track, "Black Jack Davey," the band's unique instrumentation and haunting vocals create a mystical atmosphere that transports the listener to a time when the fairies roamed free and the ale flowed like water. But don't let the whimsical nature of the music fool you, Steeleye Span's lyrics are seeped in dark tales of betrayal and heartache, with songs like "Lowlands of Holland" and "Twa Corbies" painting a stark picture of love lost and lives ruined. The standout track on the album has to be "The Elf Knight," a rollicking tune that showcases the band's impeccable musicianship and ability to make even the most morbid stories sound like a jolly good time. Overall, "All Things Are Quite Silent" is a must-listen for fans of folk music, or anyone looking to add a bit of magic and mystery to their music collection. So grab your goblet of mead, put on your dancing shoes, and let Steeleye Span whisk you away to a world where all things are not quite as they seem. Cheers!
