Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded with members of Thee Silver Mt. Zion and Guy Picciotto, 'At the Cut' is a powerful, tragic final statement from Vic Chesnutt. The songs are heavy, swelling with post-rock dynamics and Chesnutt's fragile, honest vocals. It is a heartbreaking masterpiece released shortly before his death.
