Japanese pressing includes two exclusive bonus tracks, "Deep Down" (Acoustic) and "Nom De Plume (Alternate Version). The two bonus tracks are not the same that are featured on the European limited edition! Garden Ruin is where Calexico fill those dusty, empty landscapes they"ve long documented with a big, big sound. Taking full advantage of the rockin" Calexico live band, the record distils its multicultural roots, the input of a producer, new domestic arrangements, international affairs, broadening horizons, developing ambitions and changing scenery. It"s not your average Calexico album, but then again, it never is with this band. P-Vine. 2006.
