Our Take

In the sprawling landscape of alt-country, Richmond Fontaine has always been a hidden gem, shining brightly but often overlooked in the vast sea of twang and heartache. With their latest album, "Don't Skip Out on Me," the Portland-based band proves once again that they are a force to be reckoned with, crafting songs that are both hauntingly beautiful and deceptively complex.

From the opening notes of "I Can't Black It Out If I Wake Up And Remember," Richmond Fontaine sets the tone for an album that is equal parts introspective and rollicking. Lead singer Willy Vlautin's weathered vocals carry a sense of weight and wisdom, infusing each track with a raw emotion that is impossible to ignore.

The band's ability to seamlessly blend elements of country, rock, and folk is on full display throughout "Don't Skip Out on Me," with tracks like "FAMILIAR" and "Evelyn Revere" offering up a perfect mix of twangy guitars and introspective lyrics. But it's on songs like "The Blind Horse" and "Three Brothers Roll Into Town" where Richmond Fontaine truly shines, showcasing their knack for storytelling and ability to transport listeners to another time and place.

Overall, "Don't Skip Out on Me" is a masterful addition to Richmond Fontaine's already impressive discography, solidifying their place as one of the most underrated bands in the alt-country scene. So do yourself a favor and don't skip out on this album - you'll thank us later.
