Their songs of experience suggest they spent some time exploring that darkness, only to have found the light on the other side.
-
'Angels On A Passing Train' and the terrific rock-soul ballad 'Blue But Cool' don't have anything particularly interesting to say--the lyrics are all about salvation, redemption, and other big ideas Craig Finn repackages far more ingeniously--but they jump out of the speakers with just the right mix of conviction and craftsmanship.
-
Tracks like 'Angels On A Passing Train', swoon with religious imagery and elevate in their choruses, nodding unashamedly to Dylan and Springsteen, while 'Jesus In The Temple' is a BRMC mosey into the sunset, delivered with adventurous gusto that's matched by anything found here.
