The Sonora Pine sounds at times like their name suggests - an impressive sound of yearning or longing. But there are at times when the sound sneaks up behind you , as when one is feeling light-headed and the ground sneaks upo from behind. There is structure in The Sonora Pine's songs, but it is a loose structure. Carving their path, finding their way out of a song to another plane and then working themselves back into their original idea is indicative of the sounds of The Sonora Pine. An idea dreamed upon, but not solicited. Spread out, but bound together. An oxymoron, yes, and having many non-sequiturs.
