Actually it's just one guy, James. He told me he had plans to get the demo printed and reviewed, and that he would get new music equipment to get recording again sometime next year. So, sadly there isn't a full-length in the making yet.
+1, I namedropped Cathis Ord in the Now Playing thread but no one really noticed. I actually did some keyboard stuff for the first track of the demo (which is now a free download on the MySpace). Definitely promising tracks, recommended!
Hard to say as the songs are a bit different, but they're pretty special I think. Beautiful stuff as can be expected from Justin. If you loved For Emma there's a good chance you'll love this too.
Definitely not to be forgotten:
Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever Ago
De La Mancha - Atlas
Bohren & Der Club Of Gore - Dolores
Mothlite - The Flax Of Reverie
Sleepmakeswaves - In Today Already Walks Tomorrow
King Hobo - s/t
This Will Destroy You - s/t
