Fork in the Road

by Neil Young

Fork in the Road cover art

The twenty-ninth studio album by the legendary songwriter is a heavily conceptual, politically charged rock record directly inspired by his LincVolt project—a customized 1959 Lincoln Continental converted to run on alternative energy. The tracks aggressively address the 2008 financial crisis, environmental degradation, and the auto industry bailout. While criticized for its rushed, spontaneous recording style, it remains a fascinating, eccentric snapshot of his late-career activism.
