Eric Bachmann, No Recover
The arc of Eric Bachmann’s career — from the frenzy of Archers of Loaf, through the steady melancholy of Crooked Fingers, and into his solo work — is one of increasing subtlety, maturity and gravitas. By the time you get to his fourth solo album, Bachmann’s world-weary voice rings with a warmth and a wisdom that just soaks its way into everything. Driven by acoustic guitar and unagressive electronic percussion, No Recover is reflective, sophisticated and under-stated. While he writes many sad, sad songs, there’s an enduring patience and a hard-earned hope driving them home. Highlights: “Dead and Gone,” “Murmuration Song,” “No Recover”
