This is a more accessible album than previous efforts. Where the open blue skies of the landscapes they chronicled before were tempered by the smoky dark blues of their jazz influences, GARDEN RUIN is musically brighter. Lyrically too, the album takes a left turn in which contemporary rather than mythical America is addressed. Put succinctly, GARDEN RUIN is where Calexico fill those dusty, empty landscapes they documented with a big, big sound.
Tracklist:
- Cruel
- Yours and Mine
- Bisbee Blue
- Panic Open String
- Letter to Bowie Knife
- Roka - (Spanish)
- Lucky Dime
- Smash
- Deep Down
- Nom de Plume - (French)
- All Systems Red
