"Metal Drums" is about a toxic waste site in Holbrook, Massachusetts.[9][10] "Waiting for the Dawn" concerns South Africa.[11] "Solo Flight" is an instrumental.[12]
Critical reception
The Washington Post wrote that "the ensemble creates delicate textures, with Larkin's percussive acoustic guitar and sandpaper-brushed near-whisper working against Michael Manring's fluid fretless bass, and Mike Marshall's mandolin."[13]
