Pain in adults is something of a mystery and a quandary; aware and articulate, we can describe what we feel - a sharp stab, a dull ache, a twinge, a pang, an agony - and yet still physicians argue over what to do and how to treat. Unlocking the secrets of the womb is surely harder, and the stakes for the mother high as well...

...most recent albums seem more self-aware. Because of his lyrical opacity, one gets the sense that Linkous is assembling bits and pieces in an attempt to scare his listeners, rather than to tell a story of any sort. For the same reason, it seems a tenuous stab in the dark to try to analyze his words beyond face-value. Still, there exists a motif of emergence and rejuvenation in “Dreamt…” In 2001’s “It’s a Wonderful Life,” Linkous seemed trapped...
