Description
Hannigan marches through the gate triumphantly with "Home," a soulful, heavily orchestrated anthem built on the notion that "Every falling flake of snow, it has to give in, oh but wespin, and we spin and we spin." If anything, it's that fine line between grace and futility that propels Passenger's finest moments, like the honest, post-breakup nostalgia of "Little Bird" and "Paper House" and the sinister north-country stomp of "Knots," the latter of which skillfully entwines the woodsy defiance of Gillian Welch with the bluesy windswept angst of Fiona Apple. Solid yet understated, it's Hannigan's obvious gift for melody, tasteful arrangements, and remarkably emotive elocution (when her voice breaks, the heart follows suit) that keeps Passenger afloat, while the world schemes and churns beneath.
