This was really tough to choose today. I listened to three Iron & Wine albums in the usual full random selection. Our Endless Numbered Days is an album I have too long neglected. I remember it was one of the last albums I purchased from Record Breakers in Arlington Heights, a store where I found many new bands and spent thousands of dollars in.
Now I have to listen to the whole album again to make a choice. Back with that later.
After a long walk in the rain, I came to the decision of Each Coming Night. All the other songs on the album fell very close to the mark, but this was a perfect balance. Equal parts remembrance, looking forward, and salvation make a scene that is without regret, hopeful, and without enough details to make you think this is for something ended or something eternal and bright.
Iron & Wine - Each Coming Night
Light strikes a deal with the coming night.
