His main instrument is violin and it's that rich instrument that comes creaking out of the various modes.  \u003ci\u003eMaster Sigh\u003c\/i\u003e is an elemental beginning, sparse but with promise of wilder passages.  Sure enough, Bird whistles in the wind as the sound of worry hits the air.  \u003ci\u003eYou Woke Me Up!\u003c\/i\u003e builds the tension for more than seven minutes, whereas the classical-meets-cartoon music vibe leads to the backyard shuffle of \u003ci\u003eNyatiti,\u003c\/i\u003e and the whistler shows his most carefree side.  \u003ci\u003eThe Barn Tapes\u003c\/i\u003e plows through the land of Brian Eno.  \u003ci\u003eCarrion Suite\u003c\/i\u003e carries a sense of mourning through more than nine minutes.  \u003ci\u003eSpinney\u003c\/i\u003e is the pony race that sprints for 45 seconds before hitting the creaking floorboards in the attic for \u003ci\u003eDissent.  \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eHot Math\u003c\/i\u003e strikes up the band for Afro-pop, while \u003ci\u003eSigh Master\u003c\/i\u003e inverts the beginning passage to end this journey. - iTunes\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCD Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRelease Date: October 25, 2010\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecord Label: Fat Possum Records\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUPC: 767981121925\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of Discs: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Andrew Bird","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":23772338689,"sku":"Andrew Bird (4)","price":14.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1398\/5745\/files\/Andrew_Bird_Useless_Creatures_CD.jpg?v=1761924451","url":"https:\/\/colliderecords.live\/products\/bird-andrew-useless-creatures-cd","provider":"Collide Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
