An heirloom? The return of vinyl, this time in a luscious and see through deep sea blue. They say it sounds better, stick it up to your ear and see.

"Tasteful without being tepid, its members have spun personal stories, and possibly their feelings for each other, into stately, easily accessible folk-pop. On their debut The Raft is Not the Shore, the highlights for me are the most vulnerable moments, like the tender chorus in the opening track ‘Birdsong’." - RNZ

"Cinematic in Yelling in the Wilderness, traditional and contemplative on Birdsong, celebratory and joyous with Alright Alright, Terrible Sons usher us into a new era of Aotearoa-influenced alternative folk with an album of masterfully crafted folk and pop songs." - NZ Herald

“Terrible Sons makes music that’s quite tender, almost fragile. It's steeped in folk traditions and sometimes, like on their song ‘What a Friend’, it's quite breathtaking." - Tony Stamp, RNZ The Sampler

Terrible Sons first full length album. With stunning art work by Spanish illustrator Cinta Arribas. The record was recorded in their home studio, with producer Tom Healy (Tiny Ruins, Marlon Williams, Nadia Reid) featuring a host of exceptional Ōtautahi musicians, including Jo Barus, Joe McCallum, Cam Pearce and Chris Wethey... with string arrangements by Stephen Hussey, Urban Soul Orchestra, U.K.
