about

"Raw and powerful stuff."
- Music News Nashville

"Dark songwriting doesn’t get any better than this."
- New York Music Daily

On his third full-length, Portland, Oregon-based artist Leigh Marble delivers "Where The Knives Meet Between The Rows", a ten-track follow-up to Red Tornado, which Portland alternative weekly Willamette Week proclaimed "a burning, angst folk-rock masterpiece." Further extending beyond the pop-rock and folk of "Red Tornado", "Where The Knives Meet Between The Rows" delves deeper into an indie-fied spectrum of soundscapes and experimentation, without losing the lyrical depth or sonic power of Marble's previous work.

The album also features guest appearances by longtime friend Erin McKeown, and local Portland musicians Jesse Emerson (Amelia, The Decemberists), Matt Harmon & Kali Giaritta (of The Ascetic Junkies), and Rachel Taylor Brown.

Note: This album includes a new recording of "Inebriate Waltz", different from the one that was released on the "Dearly Departed" Lone Fir Cemetery compilation.

More Press for “Knives”:

“A steam-blowing, soul-searcher of a record.”
- The Celebrity Cafe

“Wielding far greater gravity than anything the local singer/songwriter has produced before...a bleak, morose—and, subsequently, gripping—listen.”
- Portland Mercury

“Post-punk doom-pop rootsiness; hinterpol, let’s call it...The blend of a bristling intelligence and pulsating humanity.”
- Willamette Week

“Marble sounds like he's gunning for Lou Reed's crown, except it's not a decadent Velvet Underground he seeks to rule, it's a realm where the passionate heart, not the analytical head, forms the soul of a new religion.”
- Portland Tribune

“Knives is infused with a powerful melancholy.”
- Dryvetyme Onlyne
