Sometimes

City and Colour

Hushed acoustic melodies and a soaring, fragile falsetto. The sound of quiet rooms, long winters, and the heavy beauty of being alone with your thoughts.

October 31, 2005 · Hassle Records

Find on Amazon

A heavy, quiet solitude that finds a strange kind of comfort in its own melancholy.

Moments Worth Listening For
The transition from the brief, poetic intro of track 1 into the deep, resonant acoustic strums of the album proper.
The way the vocal line in 'Comin' Home' climbs into a fragile, sustained falsetto during the repetitive, yearning chorus.
The stark, dry recording of the guitar in 'Hello, I'm in Delaware' that makes it feel like the artist is sitting three feet away.

Winter saturates this record notably more than the artist's norm.
