I knew from the opening unproduced sounds of Sally Ellyson singing All The Pretty Horses-reminiscent of “Rabbit Songs” opening track Lord, Blow the Moon Out-I knew that this album was going to be pretty special. I admit that I was a bit worried last month when I looked at the track listing for “No Word From Tom”: it had quite a few songs from previous albums and I wondered if I would be bored, already owning even live bootlegs (band approved!) of them. Sure, Hem is awesome but are they that awesome?
