Gallowsbird's Bark is the debut studio album by The Fiery Furnaces released by Rough Trade Records in 2003.
"Inca Rag"/"Name Game" is actually two songs that blend into each other, this being an indication of the direction the band would take on the following album Blueberry Boat.
"Tropical Ice-Land", "Rub-Alcohol Blues" and "We Got Back the Plague" share the same tempo, are grouped together on the album cover track listing and could for this reason be construed as a three-part song. "Rub Alcohol Blues", credited to William E. Myer is most known for being performed by (and written for) the folk banjo player Dock Boggs.
Writing for Pitchfork, Amanda Petrusich described the album as "accessible, but skewed and peculiar enough to keep you peeking nervously over your shoulder every couple of minutes." - Wikipedia

"For all the jukes and turns that the Furnaces’ music has taken over the years, it’s remarkable that the first song on Gallowsbird’s Bark arrives with the band’s sound fully formed. “South Is Only A Home” enters like a drunken blues band barging home and immediately stumbling down a flight of stairs."
Happy 20th anniversary to one of the great albums by #FieryFurnaces

I mean, I loved the Fiery Furnaces, but the 4 solo Eleanor albums are, as far as I'm concerned, like 4 more-or-less perfect albums, she basically could do no wrong for the 2010's. Any chance to see her play any of that music is something special. Very happy with that solo set.
Fantastic new release for Fiery Furnaces fans. Free from guitar, just pure synth, drums and voice.

Thrilled with this new The Fiery Furnaces release, which is a “live in the studio” recording of the set they toured with on their brief reunion in 2021. One of the best to ever do it.

The Fiery Furnaces pretty much defined the '00s for fans of artsy pop and quirky bands. So it's nostalgia time with our #sotd, "Police Sweater Blood Vow".
