    Though it’s mostly a pleasant record, there’s not much from it that sticks around long after listening--for all the talk of deluge, More Rain manages to wash itself away.

    As much as More Rain might suggest dim lighting and general gloom, Ward actually gives us a fun ride (even with songs like “Slow Driving Man”) through a series of meditations, character studies, and temptations and confessions until it feels like a well-earned (and non-escapist) escape.

    As one would expect, the 12 brief songs on M. Ward’s More Rain hit, plow, and bulldoze their way right into the sweet-spot of joyous existential-wonderment.
