Could it be that nearly two years have passed since we bestowed the (questionable, minimal) honor of “Band of the Week” on All in the Golden Afternoon? Apparently so.
At the time, we admitted to being unable to describe the band’s superb, wondrous, washed-out sound, wowing to their “songs that sound natural in the broadest sense: songs that were not assembled, but born, songs free from artificiality, affectation or inhibitions,” and the incredible staying power of both their music and a pin attached to the lapel of a black jacket.
Nearly two years later, we’re no closer to finding the words to describe how their songs move us – and the pin on the jacket remains.
We’re positively thrilled to present a new video from All in the Golden Afternoon, entitled “The Fog is Filled With Spirits,” a 35mm dreamscape conceptualized and shot by the band’s own Rachel Staggs on location in White Sands, New Mexico. Enjoy.

A new All in the Golden Afternoon full-length is coming later in 2013. Please do yourself the favor of checking out their “Magic Lighthouse on the Infinite Sea” LP and stay tuned as we consider naming “Tidal Wave” our favorite song of forever.
