about

This was the first official TDFA album.

“THE DIAMOND FAMILY ARCHIVE - LAZY ABOUT THE THINGS THAT MATTER - Cowboy Junkies (admittedly lush) debut album was described by one hack as "so quiet it's almost not there". THE DIAMOND FAMILY ARCHIVE redefines that statement, but with a sound as full as it is hushed. Numerous curious instruments are at neo-folk play here, organically casting out twinkling ambience as much in keeping with David Sylvian as Califone, and set against the off-kilter observations of singer, guitarist and songwriter LAURENCE COLLYER. Truly a Talk Talk for the noughties.” - Tom Sheriff
