Jason Isbell Something More Than Free [Slipcase]

"SOUTHEASTERN was a showcase of Isbell's songwriting prowess, and a compelling bookend to a dark period of his life, but SOMETHING lends some necessary light to his grave solemnity."
"Isbell continues to deliver sepia-toned vignettes about blue-collar life, proving this 36-year-old is one of America's greatest (and continually underrated) songsmiths."
"It's nuanced, more prone to the soft than the loud dynamic...But it's just that rocksolid, sober grounding that gives SOMETHING MORE THAN FREE its extraordinary heart and intestinal fortitude."
Billboard - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he achingly good SOMETHING MORE THAN FREE, captures the mix of excitement and fear that comes when the sun rises on a new day."
Paste (magazine) - "[A] collection of 11 new tunes by turns mournful, pungent and quietly devastating. Isbell has over the years become a more patient lyricist, carefully honing his words into needle-sharp points that penetrate without making a visible mark."
