An intimate look at a brilliant album, it puts an even greater focus on the wonderful lyrics and basic melodies. Interestingly, I now have a new favorite song on the album.

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche.

A rare combination of amazing songs, artists, artistry, and a fantastic cause. The engineering alone is worth a headphones listen.

1st time i heard DeathWish, i turned it off. felt rushed, not the Isbell i've come to admire. really grab'd me when i took time to listen on the 2nd try. the writing on these songs stopped me in my tracks more than once. raw talent with just enough polish in the delivery. thankyou Jason + 400 for another keeper
