The Handsome Family: In the Air

I saw the Handsome Family at the Boardwalk in Sheffield, a little bit after this album came out. I enjoyed Andrew Bird's support set more. The Handsome Family are one of those acts that, on paper, ought to be right up my street. Yet they leave me completely unmoved. After the first few songs that night, everything seemed kind of predictable, and a bit contrived. So, after one show and one CD, I drew a line and moved on.
