As explanatory lyrics as they could be for an album filled with dark, brooding, moody reflection and a pessimistic outlook on life in general. While it could be a bit depressing, Two Guns, Twin Arrows captures the essence of this darkness through ambient soundscapes that cannot be denied their own simple beauty. Plenty of space, impeccible production (by Adamson himself), and an atmospheric quality not found anywhere else right now make this a must-have album, and proves that Chicago rock lives on.

I have only listened to the album twice so far; but I don't find it as engaging as their first self-titled full-length on the now defunct Slowdime. I have a feeling that this album is a creeper. If you like the jazz hardcore feel, look into the amazing Hoover -- also with Erskine.
