Engine

Desolate, beautiful songs that feel like a neon sign flickering in the fog. Alt-country for the broken-hearted and the late-night thinkers.

It's the best album you'll ever hear about feeling like absolute trash in a beautiful way.

A heavy, alcohol-soaked despair that finds a strange, shimmering beauty in the dark.

This Year
Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the guitar feedback on Clouds mimics a approaching storm before the vocals drop in.
The devastatingly flat delivery of the line about the hospital not admitting you in Outside This Bar.
The contrast between the upbeat holiday imagery and the desperate vocal strain in This Year.
