Into the Dark Unknown is an apparition. It is the fourth critically acclaimed album by Holcombe Waller, reflecting six years of itinerant wanderings under the Pacific Northwest's skies, the slow silvering of feathers and beards, and an animalistic intuition of where to find fresh shoots poking up through the melting snow. Lay some lavender across the dashboard, slide a water-smoothed stone into a pocket and set off with your best traveler's sweater.
