Album Description
Beautiful, sweet melodies woven with a dark and dream-like lyricism makes Glass Mountain Roads an unforgettable listen. Rooted in the landscape of the prairies, the album paints stories replete with rich characters, deserted houses and the forboding urban smokestacks of development. For the follow-up to Central City May Rise Again, the band enlisted acclaimed engineer Steve Albini (Nirvana, Smog, Low, The Pixies). Layered with strings, keys, and accordion, the album breaths with Albini's trademark earthly approach, from Clinton's distinctive and sometimes otherworldly voice to the dark, sweeping arrangements that comprise Glass Mountain Roads. Haunting and surreal, St. John's lyrics give a cinematic quality to the songs, finding Orwellian landscapes and dream-like scenes delivered with starkness and honesty. Digipak
