All that reckoning

"With the release of their 16th album, All That Reckoning, the Toronto group craft something simple, passionate and visceral. Much of the album's 11 tracks play off songwriter Michael Timmins' patient, tasteful, Southern-fired strumming, paired with his sister Margo's vocals, that seems to trade traditional choruses and verses for emotionally-charged mood-cycles and storytelling ... an essential part of Cowboy Junkies discography".

"It's 30 years since Canada's Cowboy Junkies created the template for alt-country on their second album, The Trinity Session, a hushed reimagining of rock and bluegrass standards and their own funereal songs. Much has changed in the intervening decades - they were dropped by Geffen in 1998 and haven't recorded for a major label since - but the band's faith in rootsy sounds is unwavering, as their first LP in six years illustrates. It finds the Junkies in meditative mode, revisiting their past and searching for connections in a callous, superficial world".

"Et arketypisk Cowboy Junkies-album, der lige præcis har den ekstra kant og nerve, som kan gøre det til deres vigtigste siden 1990'erne".
