Silent Homecoming
Moments Worth Listening For
The mournful weeping of the pedal steel on the title track that immediately signals a departure from pop sensibilities.
The stark, narrative weight of Silent Homecoming where the instrumentation thins out to highlight a tragic lyrical arc.
The loose, communal energy of Wine, Women and Loud Happy Songs providing a brief, rowdy respite from the album's pervasive gloom.
