Gone Again

Patti Smith

A heavy, beautiful meditation on loss. Stripped-back acoustic arrangements and shamanic rock dirges recorded in the wake of profound personal tragedy.

It's the most beautiful, heartbreaking wake you've ever been invited to attend.

A profound, ritualistic meditation on death and the enduring power of memory.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The hypnotic, circular guitar drone on Beneath the Southern Cross that feels like a spiritual incantation.
The sudden, jagged transition into the sprawling eight-minute tribute About a Boy.
The fragile, heartbreaking simplicity of the acoustic closer Farewell Reel.
