the production technique and sounds are as edible as it comes
author: Hunter PayeA tasty gem! Great songs, writing, and voice aside; the production technique and sounds are as edible as it comes.
"great songs with amazing imagery"
author: john v.... this record has excellent songwriting at the heart of it, but also plays like a movie you want to see again and again. you seem to notice new subtleties with each listen, and jon berson has the voice and vision of a man with a wise old soul. all of this is embellished by a great team of unique players, and always interesting production. fans of tom waits, jim white, nick cave, and dylan should absolutely dig this.
