The Lion's Roar

Neat indie folk, but I appreciated this more as individual songs over a full album ride

Yeah, nice soft folksy stuff. Good addition.

9/10. This was really pretty.

7/10

Nice sound en folky vibe. I liked it.

Didn't know they were from Sweden. Typically not the country you'd expect to produce a country-folkish duo with (at least to me) pretty convincing Southern US accents. (I'm not from either of these countries so I'm probably way off on both my observations). Overall I'm not the biggest country and folk fan, but this I can actually appreciate. Lovely harmonies.

Lovely folk music.

Considering that I don't like folk I was pleasantly surprised, I didn't love it, but pleasantly surprised.

Un bon album, folk pop. Ca suit bien le style de ce type de groupe. Ma conjointe est fan j'ai enregistré pour elle. Merci de la suggestion. 3.85

Great album. Thanks for suggesting

More Norwegian country/folk with the signers sounding remarkably like they came out of the American Midwest. An enjoyable listen, though the lyrics came across a little clunky for me.

Now it's possible to add carillon to the verbal impression of First Aid Kit. The Lion's Roar is mighty melancholy; I remember seeing a live performance of Emmylou, must have viewed it from Utah, but not with that emotion. Clearly, sadness can be generative. Blue, following, is on the nose lyrically, music nearly saccharine.

"Emmylou" is the star of the show, but several gems. A duo that consistently makes very good albums. The harmonies are knockout!

I'm not much of a folkie so this is largely lost on me.

When this came out it took indie folk by storm, probably as an introduction to most folks. At the time I would have likely rated this a 4, but over time it has lost it's staying power for me. It's still "good" but a bit too one-dimensional and feels like it's missing something... I'm not sure.

Delightful Americana via Sweden featuring some of the finest contemporaries we have to offer from the US catalog folk monsters

GREAT start to day 1 of this new project. This scratches the Mumford and Sons/Edward Sharpe itch for me. I know some people hate stuff like this but it is 100% the exact thing I love.

The folk album the people needed but didn't deserve.

One of those albums where a look at the cover tells you EXACTLY what you're in for. It's a "fuck no" from me, but at least it was honest about it. 2/5.
