    Deliverance of Prodigiously composed tracks. The Hotelier got a unique sound and this album slowly grows on you.Its hard to find suck a compelling music album that sound like a profound music album.I loved all the tracks and Piano Player is the pick of the album for me.

    A beautiful record and the complete opposite of its predecessor. Pretentious, but good enough to justify it and well worth a listen. Spacey and soothing, Opening Mail For My Grandmother and Goodness Part 2 are highlights of a fantastic record.

    great song after great song. less whiny than their last album, which is either good or bad, depending who you ask; for me, it made the album feel more nuanced & more relatable

    While not as "emotional" as Home, Like Noplace Is There, this album seems to flow and weave together better creating a more solid album.

    You don’t have to be a fan of punk music or emo to be a fan of The Hotelier, you simply have to appreciate genuine, earnest emotion.

    Raw-hearted bursts of bald guitar churn backing lyrics that hunger for meaning in terms that'd be corny if the music didn't hit so hard.

    While Goodness doesn’t match the raw feeling or sincerity of Home, Like Noplace Is There, it’s well worth the time of any self-respecting emo junkie.
