Damien Jurado The Horizon Just Laughed

"[T]he music is stripped down and close-miked so that it pools in your ears as if it were coming from inside your head."
Paste (magazine) - "Ostensively an aural travelogue embossed with soundscapes that capture the magical summer of his 17th year, it conveys echoes of wistful reflection and even hints of unbridled optimism as well."
Pitchfork (Website) - "[T]wo decades into his career, these songs are among the most incisive but somehow most complex ones Jurado has ever written, lined up from end to end without a wasted note, layer, line, or word."
