The Folk Implosion duo Lou Barlow and John Davis offer a kaleidoscope of tracks on One Part Lullaby, turning through a lucid dream state of lyrical introspection. Thickly padded, moderately paced hop-hop rhythms synced with distorted guitars, rolling snares, and simple keyboard touches lend a powerfully hypnotic quality to the alt-rock wash. Its warm, steady flow bestows on the listener a sort of clairvoyance that remembers birth, foresees death, and relives all the good stuff in between. --Beth Massa
