    Sings with soul and emotion you don't often hear nowadays. Sturgill Simpson helped him create a real masterpiece.

    An impressive album, fulled with songs that often hark back to familiar strains but offer compensation in their lyric content. [Mar 2018, p.97]

    Purgatory is a formidable equal to the Southern states snapshots Steve Earle took on Copperhead Road, and the largely acoustic melodies and arrangements will have some listeners checking the sleeve to make sure they’re not playing a long lost record by The Band. Yes, the likes of Price and Simpson have returned country to impressive heights, and Childers has the weaponry in his arsenal to take it even higher.

    It's an album that feels lived-in, filled with songs etched from hard-earned experiences with music to match.
