    We Will Always Be is the rare record that feels both comforting-it is, front to back, a Windy & Carl record-and wholly fresh.

    It often feels vast, tracking the curvature of the Earth, but it never forgets that music is made by people, and that there is real intimacy in the consort of two individuals relating to each other through simple gestures like singing, or brushing against six guitar strings.

    With this album, Windy & Carl are more controlled, focused, and confident than ever before, offering up their best work to date in an evolution that may just prove to be without limits.

    Windy & Carl deliver yet another significant and sublime release that's perfect for late night listening.

    This is as useful and high quality a starting point as just about anything they've recorded.

    The "point," if there is such a thing with this kind of music, is that even during its most trepidatious or lonely nadirs, there is a beauty to experiencing love that overwhelms the heart. Windy & Carl seem to aim to replicate that overwhelming sensation through their music.

    True to its title, it finds the pair plowing away dutifully and deftly at the furrow that's been their focus from the beginning.

    Despite feeling like the work of a couple laying themselves bare, it's also music to get lost in, to block out the real world.
