Black Label and White Lies

Blue-collar melancholy. Lived-in baritone vocals and weeping pedal steel capture the quiet dignity of heartbreak and the long road home.

December 14, 2018

A weary but dignified exploration of life's disappointments and the small comforts that remain.

Moments Worth Listening For

The title track's transition from a hushed vocal to a soaring, mournful pedal steel solo that feels like a physical ache.

The weary, lived-in delivery of the final line in 'She Woke Up Leavin', where the silence that follows says more than the lyrics.

The rhythmic, train-like chug of 'Country Heart' that provides a rare moment of defiant pride amidst the album's softer reflections.
