Credit where it’s due – Tyler Daniel Bean<\/b> at least has a unique vision. On his sophomore effort ‘On Days Soon To Pass’<\/i>, the Vermont singer-songwriter pairs alternative country with the most oppressive of post-rock for an appropriate manifestation of the four year stint of depression that sparked its creation.<\/p>\n

But while any sort of upbeat hopefulness is not expected within a mile radius of something like this, it feels as though this album relies a bit too much on crushing the listener under the weight of such heavy emotions. Granted, ‘FFFA’<\/i> picks things up with a bit more of a ramshackle rollick, but other than that, there’s a dourness here that can be overbearing, such as on ‘Your Eyes’<\/i> or ‘Willow II’<\/i>. It’s reminiscent of Hozier’s self-titled album in its wholehearted embrace of internal turmoil in folk, but where that album had at least the odd moment of bluesy levity, there’s such a crushing bleakness to Dean<\/b>’s work that it’s hard to escape from.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

At least there’s some solace to be found in that fact that the whole thing is gorgeously arranged. There’s a phenomenal sense of scope to the record, like in the sweeping strings on the title track or the fluttering guitar lines of ‘Loon Lake’<\/i> that really do redeem things great deal. Honestly, any weaker instrumental passages would’ve made this album a lot less bearable, but for what’s here, it at least becomes a compelling immersive listen.<\/p>\n

That’s what makes ‘On Days Soon To Pass’<\/i> so frustrating. It’s not a bad album by any means, but with a bit more variation and at least some moments of light, it could’ve been something truly special. As it stands though, it’s decent, but next time Dean<\/b> could do with mixing things up a bit.<\/p>\n
