Josh Rennie-Hynes – Furthermore

Originally published on Alt Media

A finely crafted follow up to an acclaimed debut record that unfortunately drifts by a touch too quietly.

Filled with sympathetic, emotive, soulful folk and alternative country, this is a record that has clearly been shaped by his surroundings in the Queensland outback. Rennie-Hynes’ ability to convey such emotion through his songwriting is a testament to his talent and this record is certainly filled with great examples of that.

Despite all of the positive elements, the album as a whole left me feeling slightly unsatisfied, it was almost like going to a fancy restaurant which serves tiny portions of decadence, but they just aren't filling, and you leave feeling hollow.

★★★
