Album Notes & Community Reviews

Completing his notoriously somber conceptual project, this EP continues the songwriter's dive into moody, reverb-heavy alternative rock. The collection heavily favors sparse, nocturnal arrangements and intensely personal reflections on heartbreak, distancing himself from his previous alt-country sound.
