Meadow is far different from the pretty messes of Buckner’s early work, something his recent live performances have foreshadowed.

This album contains all the things we've come to expect from Buckner - great dark music and lyrics that have a timeless quality - one that stands them easily next to traditional American folk music in their quality and importance.

While the album clocks in at a seemingly slim 33 minutes, the sense of economy actually makes for a stronger record—every note and every word is perfectly placed.

Meadow picks up where his 2004 Merge bow Dents and Shells left off-- amid icy pianos and warm swirls of electric guitar.
