The trail discovered by 2008's Bury The Square, blazed by 2009's Gather, Form & Fly, and tended by 2010's Heretofore has run into a wide and rushing river. The band we know as Megafaun, born alongside Bon Iver in the ashes that rose from DeYarmond Edison (Brad Cook, Joe Westerlund, and Phil Cook's former band with Justin Vernon), has woven years of writing, touring, and living into a new sonic language. Critically-praised and publicly-loved for their ability to speak in the many tongues of American musical history - all while blending it with their own energetic and personal form of Rock - Megafaun has staked a claim. But the lay of that land they call theirs - the hills, valleys, and caves beneath - is just revealing itself in the sunrise. This is the band we know, but in a new light. This is Megafaun.
