For The Children\u2019s Hour\u2019s <i>Going Home<\/i>, that place-moment was Louisville, Kentucky in 2003. The group started as a duo in Chicago, where opera school dropout Josephine Foster met art school student\/classical guitarist Andy Bar. Taking their name from a Longfellow poem about the period \u201cbetween the dark and daylight,\u201d they made quietly intricate, percussion-less music, releasing their debut <i>SOS JFK<\/i> in 2003, before former (and future) Slint guitarist David Pajo caught their set at The Hideout. He invited them on tour with his new group Zwan and began joining them live on drums. <\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<style>\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"content_block-260301\" class=\"content_block paragraph text triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left center_align\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"paragraph_wrapper center_align\">\n<p>            <iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 350px; height: 470px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=1754823332\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/tracklist=false\/transparent=true\/\" seamless><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/thechildrenshour.bandcamp.com\/album\/going-home\">Going Home by The Children&#8217;s Hour<\/a><\/iframe><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content_block paragraph triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<style>\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"content_block-260302\" class=\"content_block paragraph text triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left center_align\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"paragraph_wrapper center_align\">\n<p>            The beauty of a \u201clost album\u201d is the sense that you\u2019re receiving a reanimated piece of an alternative, living history. <i>Going Home<\/i> is a record that was shelved by a label, fell out of print before the mp3 era, and whose very recordings were filed away, misplaced, and rediscovered 20 years later. Created (and subsequently lost) at the Louisville studio of Will Oldham\u2019s brother Paul, the project borders on the utopian environs of Drag City\u2019s second decade but doesn\u2019t sound quite like anything released by the band\u2019s contemporaries on the label. (The project\u2019s long-delayed release came on February 23 via Sea Note, a Drag City Imprint.)<\/p>\n<p>            <i>Going Home<\/i> certainly contains some of the hallmarks of a DC production \u2014 at an elemental level, it\u2019s loose folk rock with a slacker sensibility \u2014 but unlike the Silver Jews, Pavements, Smogs, and Bonnie \u201cPrince\u201d Billys of the era, The Children\u2019s Hour\u2019s unsanded edges are l<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ed by the waves of Foster\u2019s sublime vocals. Compared to his guitar work in Slint and elsewhere, Pajo\u2019s drumming here is relatively straightforward, building a steady foundation for his bandmates\u2019 contrapuntal guitars and the soaring clarity of Foster\u2019s voice. On paper, the music is confined to these four elements. Taken together, though, they form an unbound entity capable of expanding into jubilant chamber pop one moment and contracting into lonesome cowboy country the next.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content_block paragraph triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<style>\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"content_block-260303\" class=\"content_block breaker triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left video\">\n<div class=\"media_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"video_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"fluid-width-video-wrapper\" style=\"padding-top: 56.25%;\">\n<p>    <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Leader Soldier\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Vj7pKfh4hDs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n \/\/trackYouTubeVideo('260303');\n<\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<style>\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"content_block-260300\" class=\"content_block paragraph text triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left center_align\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"paragraph_wrapper center_align\">\n<p>            Opener \u201cLeader Soldier\u201d contains Laetitia Sadier-inspired vocal lines and harmonies that sound like Stereolab demos, whereas Foster sounds like Margo Guryan on its follow-up, \u201cDance With Me,\u201d even against the down-home backdrop of Bar\u2019s campier vocal contributions and a drawling electric guitar. The more angular guitar lines that introduce \u201cRainbow\u201d give shades of <i>Spiderland<\/i>, though Foster\u2019s ennui feels more aligned with Sibylle Baier\u2019s than Brian McMahan\u2019s. For \u201cAnna,\u201d on the other hand, she crosses Dolores O\u2019Riordan with Joni Mitchell for an upbeat campfire sing-along complete with a whistled interlude. \u201cWyoming\u201d is sneakily ahead of its time, prefiguring the haunted ballads of Angel Olsen\u2019s <i>Strange Cacti<\/i> by eight years. And the album\u2019s closing, titular track returns to the sing-song simplicity the group\u2019s moniker implies.<\/p>\n<p>            In the pantheon of projects lost and found, <i>Going Home<\/i> represents the platonic ideal \u2014 a record that exists both in and outside of its time, a stolen classic returned to its rightful cult, an early spring after a winter of oblivion.<\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<style>\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"content_block-260206\" class=\"content_block paragraph text triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left center_align\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"paragraph_wrapper center_align\">\n<p>            <iframe loading=\"lazy\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/playlist.megaphone.fm?p=TFI7834680816&amp;light=true\" width=\"100%\" height=\"482\"><\/iframe><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content_block paragraph triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"author\">\n    <span><br \/>\n      By <span class=\"credit_name\">Raphael Helfand<\/span><br \/>\n  <\/span><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
