Last Of The Country Gentlemen
Josh Pearson
This 2011 folk release is marked by raw, jagged confessionals and frantic, percussive guitar playing. The songwriting reflects a state of mental breakdown, stripped of all traditional studio artifice.
Emerging during the early 2010s, the album maintains a stark quality that separates it from its peers. The performance carries a sense of extreme desperation, resembling a musician playing alone in an empty space to survive.
