“Nice harmonies, clever lyrics throughout this album. This track made me rec as will other poetically inclined wordsmithys who will appreciate the use of contraction "if'n". Can't wait to hear more from Jayber Crow.”

Artist: Jayber Crow
“recollection without explicit nostalgia - somewhat a relief after the blast of the Oregon song
beautiful use of xylophone or glockenspiel or something... (overlaid onto a nice steel string acoustic guitar) - really delicate textured chorus with the vocals. lush”

“A harsh parody of a marching song.
"Manifest Destiny...we can fall from a tree - sweet with indifference...pack them up and ship them out
Searing and serious indightment of the way things are - with a type of bleak humor. I know there's a name for such painful humor - too serious and sincere in intention to be called sarcasm - I can't remember it. Message me if you can help!”

“There's something really biblical about these guys' music - not in any orthodox sense but in the way they have a sort of old testament aesthetic and quite serious meaningful lyrics. Check out for instance how their album cover looks like it was etched by William Blake. ”
