We here at Hybrid were very impressed by the debut
recording from the UK's David Ford, I Sincerely
Apologise For All The Trouble I've Caused, back
in 2006. Well, it's time for the follow up record, and
it promises to be just as dynamic and dark and intelligent
and enthralling as the last. From the rending opening
strings of blackened-heart-on-a-sleeve first single
“Go To Hell” to the tender, mournful pedal
steel of album closer “…And So You Fell,”
it’s clear Ford – with his open-throated,
raspy howl – is not the standard wounded male troubadour.
Songs For The Road expands on where Ford left
off with I Sincerely Apologise…, building
the singer’s gift for quiet intensity, lush melodies,
and haunted lyricism to a triumphant swell. Seething
with an absence of forgiveness in its penetrating self-reflection,
Songs For The Road is a refreshing album by a
man and his guitar that anyone would be proud to wear
like a singed badge of honor.
