The Broken Side Of Time 4:26 Release Notes: -------- Singer, Songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Matthew Ryan has announced an October 30th release date for his 15th album In The Dusk Of Everything. The recording marks a distilled reclamation of his more primal Americana/Folk roots. The timelessly modern and spare qualities of the dozen songs move with an earthy cinema where the vocals live front and center, while the music ebbs and flows like stark scenery in a grainy but saturated film. It is a folky mood record that distills the universal story of two people seeking redemptive shelter amid the violence, beauty and uncertainty that life brings. It moves with that always fascinating voice that just keeps imploring listeners to walk with him into ever stranger and more compellingly honest spaces. These songs bear witness to an artist that continues to evolve, search and delivFor a sneak peak: http://youtu.be/kQWRe2x4lv0 In the Dusk of Everything is the final part of a trilogy that started in 2010 with Dear Lover. That album was the singer-songwriter's exploration of some very private events that cracked him wide open and served as a catalyst to change how he viewed the world and himself. That journey continued with I Recall Standing as Though Nothing Could Fall which unloaded an epic and unflinching look at the world outside. And now, with In the Dusk of Everything, Ryan offers a profoundly quiet and cinematic sense of closure where listeners are invited to step into a filmic collection of vignettes that lean towards redemptive unity. He shares, ôI wanted to make a modern folk record. I wanted it to feel like an autumnal film where each song waltzed into the next, where the story unfolded without any bluster other than what happens in the story. The songs were all written from different perspectives, from male to female, sometimes in the same verse. It was the only way that I felt I could really get to the root of what happens between men and women in their wrestling with mortality, the mortality of dreams, intimacy, despair and trust. Again, together and alone, thereÆs a responsibility we have to the future and real love with all its darkness at times. I feel a bigger story is being told through this seemingly small lens.ö Over the years Ryan has been celebrated for his poetic lyricism. His work challenges listeners in so many ways, always cutting to the bone with a rare honesty that isnÆt prone to offer easy answers. And sonically, his production choices have followed suit. It's as if his voice and words offers the scene while the music offers the weather. The minimalist folk on In the Dusk of Everything is as intimate, direct, and raw as he has ever been, where the spare keyboards in the arrangements are a perfect and moody grey like the East Berlin skies of Wim WenderÆs Wings of Desire and the pacing is so beautifully purposeful it feels like the aural cousin of Dennis LehaneÆs Mystic River. Pianos, organs, strings, and other instruments make appearances throughout, but the overwhelming sense of the record is that the singer went to the studio, sat down with a guitar, and just opened a vein. ItÆs almost as if too much ornamentation might overshadow the words, and itÆs so important to Ryan that we hear what heÆs saying. The songwriter can turn a clever phrase as well as anyone, but some of his most profound moments come when heÆs just trying to cut through all the noise to find a distilled truth. As in ôStupid Worldö where he concludes: ôSome suffer a blindness Of wild disappointment Despite good intentions I showed her my scars then She showed me her bruises YouÆre someoneÆs salvation In a stupid worldö In many ways, In the Dusk of Everything brings Matthew Ryan to a moment of fully realized vision. He has returned to his creative origin by collaborating again with Producer David Ricketts, who was behind the board for his debut May Day. Ryan offers, ôWe were looking to create a very wide but honest music here. Sonically, I wanted to define a space between American Folk Music, Neil Young and say the ambient minimalism of Brian Eno and Arvo Part.ö This NFO File was rendered by NFOmation.net
