Another gem.. I've been listening to Innocence Mission since their "alt.rock" days of the late 80's. This album fits very nicely into their current sound. Very melodic, relaxing music coupled with powerful lyrics. The musicianship and vocals are (as usual) amazing. The Innocence Mission soothe the soul with their beautiful music. If you haven't listened to them before, this is a great starting point. Buy the album. You will not be disappointed. Then start purchasing their back catalogue.

Wishing for the past. This is their best in years...but as someone who was listening to them way back in the beginning, I always hope they will return to their roots like Glow and Umbrella. It's a shame umbrella still is not available on iTunes as it is their best. Please bring back the early sound...just one last time....

Always Sweet. All of the Innocence Mission albums remind one to stop and take the time to enjoy what is around you in that moment. Always peaceful. Always beautifully presented. The perfect accompaniment to a rainy day and a cup of coffee, or at the close of a day well spent.

A record of the deepest humility and generosity.. Their humility has slowly but surely become brilliant. I am in awe of this record. It is a deeply generous album. This is my first review, but perhaps it's more of a "thank you" note. Thank you to Karen, Don and Mike. The world is somehow a bit better. P.S.: My wife and I have deeply enjoyed all of their albums, and I have never had a favorite until now. While our daughter was still in the womb, the one song we decided to play for her each night-with iPod headphones taped to my wife's belly-was "Happy Birthday" from their last album. I think they wrote it for the day of one of their own children's births, and the words seemed perfect. Anyhow, our daughter heard the soft tones and intervals piped in every night for 3 months before she arrived. Ironically, today is actually her second birthday, and even now, she still responds to this song like no other. As far as this new album, "My Room in the Trees," I listened to it for the first time as I drove to San Francisco yesterday. I wept in the car when I got to "North American Field Song." The record is full of the most simple and freely offered compassion. The imperfections are beautiful and infinitely generous. Their best record to date. And I never make claims like that.)

They. Sorry in advance about how long this review is, but an album that makes me feel like this one does only comes around so often, and I just can't say enough good things about this band or this album! No, I don't know the band, I'm not the band or anyone in the band, and I'm not them or anyone that works for their record company or anything, so if this sounds like a sales pitch, its only because I truly believe this band has achieved things in their career musically that most bands will only dream of. With that being said, lets begin. This album is a great addition to the Innocence Mission's already extensive catalog. This album for the most part picks up right where "We Walked In Song" and "Street Map" left off. The same familiar elements that have made us fall in love with the Innocence Mission are there from the lush, swirling, thick, icy hollowbody guitar sound that can only come from the skillful fingers of Don Peris, the gentle, sorrowful yet uplifting lyrics and angelic voice of Karen Peris, the perfectly executed, graceful, memorable yet not self indulgent (you know what I mean, there's some bands that will remain nameless that the bass player either isn't doing enough or is doing way too much, and it just ruins the rest of the band's performance) upright and electric bass of Mike Bitts. But there are a couple of slight surprises, as there usually is with each IM album. This album at times feels as sparse as "Birds Of My Neighborhood" on songs that are mostly guitar, piano, and vocals. Other songs however remind me of "Glow" IM songs with their diverse instrumentation such as pump organs, cellos, strings, and even horns. It also feels like maybe some of these songs could maybe have been leftovers from "We Walked In Song" that were recorded but didn't make it to the album. As any fan of the IM knows, IM leftovers and b-sides are never a bad thing, and most of us wonder why they didn't make it to the intended albums since most are as good as the rest of the material on the intended albums. At times the instrumentation on this album is almost reminiscent of Tom Waits on the "Alice" album. Either way, this album feels like an IM album that had already existed for years, but that I had just never heard about, meaning you kind of feel like you've owned the album your whole life, but yet although you feel that familiar comfort, you feel the sense of discovering something new and exciting at the same time, as each new Innocence mission album has always seemed to make me feel. making them one of the few bands I eagerly await new releases for without ever being disappointed. The Innocence mission has changed their sound in many ways throughout their many years and it seems their albums use less instruments and less fancy production values as their albums progressed, occasionally incorporating a full band again with a drummer and bass player instead of just being primarily guitars and vocals or piano and vocals. I think they have almost achieved the perfect balance of instrumentation and production to make fans of both the more produced more full sounding songs and fans of the more sparse guitar and/or piano with vocals songs happy with the "compromise", if you want to call it that. I think both styles/sounds have their pros/cons, so I am fairly happy with the instrumental structure of the songs on this album. Every song is a standout track in its own right. However, I have always been a little less fond of the majority of the innocence missions piano tracks with a few exceptions, and the three Piano driven songs on this album unfortunately just don't do much for me. They aren't bad by any means, just not what I listen to the innocence mission for. So that is the only flaw on this album in my opinion. But don't let that stop you from buying and enjoying this album. Your opinion of those three songs may differ from mine. If you are a fan of any of the bands other releases, you will not be disappointed in this one. Why are you still reading this? Buy this album! You can thank me later! Go on...I'll wait here while you buy it and listen to it...........Oh, you're back, so I told you you'd like it. Your welcome!
