    From start to finish, Nobody Lives Here Anymore is a seamless expression of nostalgia, love and hope for brighter days to come.

    It’s a testament to the strength of Clarke’s compositional gifts and his command of mood that even 14 or 15 tracks in, in an album pitched at a consistent campfire glow and midtempo stroll, songs like “The Golden Sky” sound just as fresh as the record’s first notes.

    Nobody Lives Here Anymore is a respectable and melodious work of sincere and warm country-pop.

    Clipped down to 40 minutes, Nobody Lives Here Anymore would have the potential to be a great album; at 77 minutes, it's quality music that somehow wears out its welcome.

    Nobody Lives Here Anymore does little to move beyond Cut Worms' reliance on nostalgia, yet Clarke isn't interested in self-analysis. After all, it's a lot more convenient to look elsewhere.

    Across a double album, Clarke's songwriting landscape can start to feel featureless, his big-sky country demanding tighter focus, more interesting rock formations. [Dec 2020, p.88]

    "Nobody Lives Here Anymore" is a country pop classic of 2020. It's a pretty lengthy listen, coming in at 77 minutes but you wouldn't notice"Nobody Lives Here Anymore" is a country pop classic of 2020. It's a pretty lengthy listen, coming in at 77 minutes but you wouldn't notice while your listening. Despite a lack of variety in style across the album, it remains fresh and listenable throughout. Perhaps it's the vocals, it could could be the overall style but it kept reminding me of George Harrison's solo stuff (although this is not quite as good!). It's an easy listen and remains enjoyable even after multiple listens. "Sold My Soul" and "Every Once In A While" standout but the whole album is well worth checking out. Expand
