Album Review: Empty Country - Empty Country

Album Review: Empty Country - Empty Country

“Any Cymbals Eat Guitars fan will tell you that to truly appreciate their music you should sit and read along the words as you listen, and that remains true with Empty Country. D’Agostino’s knack for poetic detail and ability to present a character’s world within a song is stronger than ever, and the instrumental dynamics allow these to be more of a focal point.”

I reviewed Empty Country, the self-titled album from former Cymbals Eat Guitars leader Joe D’Agostino’s new project. It’s over on Beats Per Minute.
