On his third album Gibson strips away the gothic Americana elements of his previous releases and replaces them with immersive electronic textures and dark pop-laced compositions.

Co-producers Tim Hecker, Jesse Sykes and Randall Dunn (Earth, Sunn O))) enhance the respective experimental, melodic and dark qualities of the album as Gibson delves into lyrical corners that have a cinematic feel. He sings them in a deep, rich voice that brings to mind Jack Ladder and Lambchop’s Kurt Wagner backed by Wild Beasts or Tindersticks. An album that takes a few listens before its nuances begin to emerge.
