Maggie and Ira Moran have been married for twenty-eight years–and it shows: in their quarrels, in their routines, in their ability to tolerate with affection each other’s eccentricities.

Ira is infuriatingly practical, a man “who should have married Ann Landers.” And what begins as a day trip to a funeral becomes an adventure in the unexpected.

Two Chicago-based producers-extraordinaire constitute the Opus, and this, their second long-player, just screams out to be played in trendy wine bars with dim lighting. It's all after-dark atmospherics, creepy samples and subtle hip-hop beats. Mr. Echoes and the Isle of Weight have done work for Aesop Rock, Murs and Slug before, but there's no returned favours here, which is definitely for the best; leaving only the rich, dexterous instrumentals of two guys who are clearly masters at their trade...
