The Waterboys
"All Souls Hill"

Released in 2022

I completely missed this album when it came out, but found it a few years later and very glad I did. It's tremendous. It's got a blend of rock, bluesy, and spiritual songs. The album is as ambitious and musically fascinating as something I'd expect from Kate Bush.

My favorite tune is a nearly 10 minute epic called "Passing Through", but songs like "In My Dreams" have a blend of music and poetry that reminds me of their wonderful album, "An Appointment with Mr Keats".
