In the Rain of Daylight is a wondrous entity from start to finish. The Peppermint Confederacy provide substance and introspect mixing folk and alt-country that provide the listener with a sense of being lost, but with the feeling that your on the way to a magnificent new beginning. It was an adventure to listen to with the fusion of an array of instruments and meditative, somewhat psychedelic effects, mostly with a folky acoustic foundation. Everything from Acoustic Guitar to Harmonica, Piano and Maracas come together to create a soft and sobering sound that hits with passion and insight.

...the music made is intelligent and well thought out with intention and purpose. It seems to have a goal and that goal is moving you towards thoughtful contemplation. Each song leads into the next with grace and smoothness that is not easily found or repeated, seeming to bridge the move from one device to the next; making it possible to experience the last song and the current one simultaneously, and with cause. The album is a journey with an emotional and subtle intensity. The lyrics stand alone as an impressive example of the art of language and arrangement. They are poetic and philosophical at their worst moments. Mix in some elegant and imaginative rumination on top of amazing and beautiful music, and you have Josh Miller and The Peppermint Confederacy's fantastically dreamy phenomenon, In the Rain of Daylight.
