Spooky Actions' Songs Of The Nations, featuring Bruce Arnold (electric guitar, super collider),Thomas Buckner (baritone), Kirk Dirscoll (drums, percussion) and John Gunther (woodwinds), contains melodies from the Sioux, Arapaho, Zuni, Teton Sioux, Chippewa and Cheyenne nations that are given spacious arrangements that bring out their stark beauty. The internal complexities of each song are explored with grooves based on linguistic cadences. Highlights are the opening "Dog Feast" with its upbeat and catchy refrain. The CD then transitions into the airy "Ghost Dance", with Arnold providing shimmering effects. John Gunther gets to shine on the only instrumental, "Beyond The Dawn" and the cyclical "Chippewa Lullaby". The band is donating all their profits from this CD to Native American charities.
