Description
Aptly, the album is heavy and distressed, brimming with electrifying tension. Even its sweet-sounding opening track, ‘Quit’, features the refrain, ‘Don’t say you love me’. ‘Standing in the Light of Love’ and ‘Goin’ Home’ let the Horse off the tether in fields of overdriven guitar; an out-of-work logger grapples with his faith on the breakneck ‘Timberline’; and on ‘Gateway of Love’, Young dreams of a less painful future over a hypnotizing 10 minutes, leading into the somber, brokedown ‘How Ya Doin’?’ The songwriter sums up the album best during its shadowy finale ‘Boom Boom Boom’: ‘All I got is a broken heart, and I don’t try to hide it when I play my guitar’.
