n MAKE AMENDS, FOR WE ARE MERELY VESSELS, Our Brother the Native take a giant step forward in craft from the sound of their debut (which was pieced together, quite literally, from various lo-fi recordings and emailed instrumental parts). The indie outfit's sophomore release on Fat Cat is an organic and expansive affair, folding in waves of guitar noise, wistful singing, washes of effects, and delicate atmospherics in a way that recalls Sigur Ros and Popol Vuh. Seductive and mesmerizing, MAKE AMENDS portends fine things from this up-and-coming indie outfit.|
