Album Notes & Community Reviews
Peter Silberman's harrowing concept album tells the story of a relationship doomed by terminal illness and emotional abuse. 'Hospice' swells from whispered intimacy to wall-of-sound crescendos, mirroring the overwhelming nature of grief. It is an emotionally devastating but beautifully realized work of art.
