Album Notes & Community Reviews

Bill Callahan's third studio LP marks a transitional period, slightly cleaning up the abrasive tape hiss of his early cassette work while maintaining an intensely intimate lo-fi aesthetic. The album frames his deadpan baritone and idiosyncratic storytelling within sparse acoustic arrangements, augmented occasionally by off-kilter strings and minimal percussion.
