The Microphones is the music project led by Phil Elverum, known for intimate, lo-fi and experimental indie recordings; key releases include The Glow, Pt. 2 and Mount Eerie.

Phil Elverum (from Anacortes, Washington) is the principal creator behind The Microphones. The Microphones' notable releases include The Glow Pt. 2 (early 2000s) and Mount Eerie (2003). Elverum later released music as Mount Eerie and released a Microphones‑titled work in 2020.

DeBaser hosts two positive reviews celebrating The Microphones' landmark albums. Critics highlight ambitious concept work and intimate lo-fi textures. The Glow, Pt. 2 is described as a monumental bedroom masterpiece; Mount Eerie as a conceptual climb and milestone. Both reviews rate the records highly.

For:Fans of lo-fi, experimental indie rock and intimate folk recordings.

 I am indeed talking about Lo-fi, both for the uneven dimension of the beautiful songs and the craftsmanship of the sound; an acoustic sound both in tones and instruments, almost noise-like (but never chaotic) that gives the work the power of simplicity and immediacy.
