 | | The name evokes mystery -- and so does the new Conspiracy album, "Regard the End," which is laced with an eerie but transcendent darkness. |
 | | The new album, coming out Tuesday, is a masterful collection of gothic Americana music, filled with Fisher's evocative, subtly shifting baritone, deeply probing lyrics, and various folk-noir colors from electric and acoustic guitars, violin, mandolin, trumpet, and drums, along with hushed backup vocals from Kristin Hersh, Jess Klein, and Blake Hazard. |
 | | The album, which is coming out on well-respected local indie Kimchee Records, starts with an 1865 tune, "River in the Pines." It's about two ill-fated lovers who meet premature deaths, one by drowning accidentally. |
