No Depression in Heaven

Written during country music's most recent ascent in popularity, this poetry "e;LP"e; features ten "e;tracks"e; that each tip language out of key. Dwelling on whether it is best to look backward to a seemingly better past, longing for a way to make things great again, or to stare into the abyss of the future, gambling that entry into paradise will provide release, No Depression in Heaven resolutely riffs on our latter-day anxiety, asking how we respond to bad times and what it means to hold onto something toxic because of the comforts it affords.
