Our Take

Jason Molina's posthumous album "Eight Gates" is a haunting and introspective journey through the late singer-songwriter's innermost thoughts and emotions. With his trademark soulful voice and poetic lyrics, Molina takes listeners on a sonic rollercoaster of raw emotion and tender vulnerability.

From the melancholic opening track "Whisper Away" to the uplifting and intimate "The Crossroad and the Emptiness," Molina's unparalleled ability to evoke a wide range of emotions through his music is on full display throughout "Eight Gates." The lo-fi production adds to the album's intimate feel, making it feel like Molina is in the room with you, pouring his heart out through each note and lyric.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Thistle Blue," a heartfelt ballad that showcases Molina's unparalleled ability to craft beautiful and intimate melodies that stick with you long after the song has ended. The sparse instrumentation on this track allows Molina's vocals to shine, drawing the listener in with its haunting beauty.

Overall, "Eight Gates" is a fitting tribute to an artist who left us too soon, showcasing Jason Molina's unmatched talent and leaving a lasting impact on the listener. With its poignant lyrics, ethereal melodies, and heartfelt performances, this album is a must-listen for fans of Molina's work and newcomers alike. Jason Molina may be gone, but his music lives on through "Eight Gates."
