I've been seeing the name Maribou State for quite some time now, but never managed to explore the music of the "two music making, tea drinking, boys from the Shire".
However, few days ago, someone nicely pointed their new album to my attention and I have to say - whatever says below is absolutely true. Insanely talented!

I still haven't heard the whole record, but their collaboration with Pedestrian (who's awesome on its own) is a must-hear!
Portraits was released on June 1st via Ninja Tune.
