This Is Your Blood
All Over Me
 |
Welkin's double-album 2010 release; welkin's 3rd record
"This Is Your Blood All Over Me is nothing short of epic. Birch's lyrics ponder the natural and spiritual worlds and his place in each, but it's the music that's the real revelation here. The best word for numbers such as Raven Falls and Seasons in the Wilds might be expansive...these songs unwind slowly, melding down-in-the-canyon country-rock with ethereal space-prog in a way that brings to mind Neil Young fronting Pink Floyd. That's a mighty nice thing to bring to mind, too."

Strangers & Exiles
|
Welkin's full-length Sophomore Record -2005
"Not a sound has been overlooked, and nothing is misplaced on Strangers & Exiles. The complexity of the arrangements is oft times awe-inspiring and mind-boggling, and just grows more so with each listen. Full of surreal imagery, the folding repetition of lyrics adds to the pulsing, melting, and swirling beauty of the beast, for Strangers & Exiles is a living and breathing thing. Welkin are polar opposites of The Mars Volta, yet the closest kin at the same time - a backwards statement that makes sense in the far-off universe that both bands exist in. Both will give fantastic visions, and both will give weird tripped out dreams should a person fall asleep to the otherworldly sounds of their music. Chalk it up to personal experience."

No Ordinary Elephant
|
Welkin's full-length Debut Record - 2002
"...Welkin takes its art seriously. Every song here shows incredible depth...Birch has the same high, keening voice that's made Thom Yorke and Neil Young two of rock 'n' roll's most unlikely superstars, and the songs he writes seem made for gazing at distant universes from splintered country porches."
