20 years of @fruit_bats' Spelled in Bones! Eric Johnson returned to the drawing board with distinctly darker intent. “I was going to write this dark bummer record with shades of optimism, but my life started getting better,” he explains. The result of much soul-searching, Spelled in Bones is truly Johnson’s enlightened Romantic opus — in the 18th century English literary sense of the term. With an emphasis on the “bigger picture” of life as it relates to nature’s organic relationship with humanity, and irrational, spontaneous moments of beauty and rebirth, Spelled in Bones offers warm, thoughtful, bittersweet pop that’s as hopeful as it is curious.
