Suffer in peace

"Suffer in Peace shows two sides of Tyler Farr. There's the side where he digs deep and shows some vulnerability with some good, well-written heartbreakers; the side the album is named for. Then you have the other side where Tyler Farr wants you to know how much of a cool, tough, country boy he can be; the side where the album's picture of Farr on a 4-wheeler comes into play. This tough guy side comes off a bit trashy at times and isn't anything new to the country music world. However, Farr separates himself a bit from his male counterparts with ballads that are spread throughout the album. While the production is rather consistent throughout, the drastic differences in attitudes and stories are a bit jarring when listening to it. Suffer in Peace is better than I thought it would be, but still doesn't offer much more than a few songs worth listening to again".

"Suffer in Peace sometimes lives up to the promise of its title, seeming to favor its misery a little too strongly, but it does have its charms. Usually, they're the outright ballads -- the stately, sad title track and its doppelganger "Criminal," and the drinking ballad "A Guy Walks Into a Bar" -- but these would've been placed in sharper relief if there were a fast tune or two as contrast. Then again, happiness just doesn't seem to be Tyler Farr's thing: he's the guy scowling in the corner as he sips a beer".
