Hayes ditches the straight country fare and writes like Dylan on meth…this is a good thing. His wisdom is all John Prine and Randy Newman. His sound is Ryan Adams doused in kerosene. These pretty, jaded hilarious songs are almost mentally unstable….except they’re all very self aware and all more than competent. This is the kind of record people die to hear or die afterward when they realize they’ll never be that smart. Buy it.
