Take from my heart a splinter
Carrying wood, for the coming winter
Spider in the pile
There all the while
Leave me beguiled
Part from me
Absentee
Take from the people their dead river
Take from the body its shiver
I have something for you
I’ll give you a clue
It’s shaped like a shoe
Part of me
Absentee
As before, I am nude
As before, you are too
Aint it true
Walking on a country road late last night
I passed a stranger in the moonlight
I turned around to see
Where he did flee
But there was just me
Return the deed
Absentee
Part of me
Absentee

David Berman's down-to-earth and reflective, yet at times comedic lyricism was unlike any other artist. Sonically, the indie rock instrumentation blends well with the country-inspired elements to create an album that feels somber yet oddly reassuring. Thank you for the art you left behind, David Berman. RIP. foof

I find Callahan's voice endlessly listenable- great songs, great chilled-out vibe without being maudlin or trite. One of the best American artists of the moment, for me. wolfgangyehyeh

It's Fleet Foxes' tightest and most direct record yet. It's an example of veterans of their craft producing some absolutely beautiful soundscapes. bamdumtss

Theres such a strong mix of lush instrumentation, dynamic vocals, and sentimental lyrics its hard to find a track I didn't enjoy. Both the vocals and instrumentation swing from warm (Spring) and folksy (What It Is) to aetherial (Lark), dramatic (All Mirrors), and at times a little retro (Chance). Tye
