Why don’t more places have honorary state trees? The Wye Oak was a really big tree located in the tiny state of Maryland (destroyed in 2002 by a thunderstorm). There’s something about big trees which is just so awesome. Which is likely why we think we need to climb them, drive cars through the trunks of them, build complicated tree villages in them, and clone them so that we can produce future races of frightening giant monster trees.
This is a song that seems to mimic a force of nature. Reminds me of the big slow rock songs like the Besnard Lakes or Raising the Fawn create. This is from the 2009 album “The Knot”.
