Seth Frightening
B.Hoo/The Prince and His Madness

Folk, Indie Folk,
Sonorous Circle

Seth Frightening are from New Zealand and it's not surprising that this is connected to the Glass Vaults (via small country/music scene/label). Seth Frightening plays eerie bedroom folk. And while the 2010 release The Princes and his Madness is a bit more light, airy and kind of a fantasy story, B.Hoo and the 2011 material is somehow more heavy-hearted and massive. It reminds me a bit on Mt. Moon and the Jakob Battick & Friends progression. It's also highly recommended for friends of Phil Elvrum/Microphones and early Mt. Eerie.
You can download all three releases for free from their bandcamp.

These tracks are totally ace: Can We Eat It (Truth) So We Know What To Say (Visions!), The Prince and His Voice Recorders (Part One), I'll Miss, Coming Clean., Even If I Die... (Classical)
