Hiss Golden Messenger have made their name with a Dylan-tinged brand of Americana, carving out a niche with an aesthetic homespun, wistful and soul-searching. The focus remains on his songwriting, yet here MC Taylor's outfit - containing members of Megafaun and Bon Iver's band, manage to transcend and extend their own paradigm with songs that nod to Southern soul stylings from Memphis and Muscle Shoals, whilst maintaining the rootsy charm that their mainman has made his calling card. Classicist in nature yet never falling prey to the lure of 'retro' stylings, 'Heart Like A Levee' is an elegant marriage of the intimate and the ambitious.
