Can you believe it? Devendra Banharts Cripple Crow originally released by XL in 2005 is turning 20 years old. This was the 5th album from the Venezuelan American artist who is considered the pioneer of the Freak Folk and New Weird America movements. To celebrate Devendra has compiled a reissue of the out of print release that features a 3rd Bonus LP (on Clear Green Smoke!) featuring 9 bonus tracks, including 1 B-Side, 5 previously unreleased demos, 2 previously unreleased live tracks, and 1 unearthed smash hit from the recording sessions.
This release is the first on his newly created Heavy Flowers label.
The album received a Best New Music 8.4 review from Pitchfork upon its release. The release date will fall 1 day prior to the actual 20th Anniversary, which will be the first time Devendra is early for anything. Now THAT is something to celebrate!

Cripple Crow is undoubtedly impressive, vastly singular but entirely accessible, and an inspired listening experience where Banhart again proves himself as one of the more talented and charismatic forces in modern music. Pitchfork Best New Music
