Sons of Bill

This record should’ve been the best Americana album of the 2010s, I’ll never understand how nobody heard it. The Wilson brothers’ high water mark in terms of songwriting, instrumentalism, stylistic sensibility, and maturity, this is an album of faith-seeking, starting in the unknown and ending not far from it, but with a newfound purpose. “We will look for love and logic, in the dying of the light” We have not found it, we probably never will, but damn we will seek.

I definitely never expected an album like this from the Virginia band of brothers, but for the most part, it works really well. Sweeter, Sadder, Farther Away is too damn perfect. We’ll miss this hand a whole lot.

SOBs best country record, overdone at times, but the highs are so damn high. Best listened to live though.
