Van Dyke Parks, and Marc Olsen. Recorded and mixed at home by Crisci on equipment older than his likely audience, Early Morning Hymns presents a powerful look at a side of songwriting and ornate instrumentation that Crisci had been unable to explore with the Appleseed Cast ensemble. The results are brilliant and captivating songs that, although endearingly brash, avoid the curse of being distractingly clever.
